330 .. $a In early Christianity it was established that every church should have a light burning
on the altar at all times. In this unique study, Eternal light and earthly concerns,
looks at the material and social consequences of maintaining these 'eternal' lights.
It investigates how the cost of lighting was met across western Europe throughout
the whole of the Middle Ages, revealing the social organisation that was built up
around maintaining the lights in the belief that burning them reduced the time spent
in Purgatory. When that belief collapsed in the Reformation the eternal lights were
summarily extinguished. The history of the lights thus offers not only a new account
of change in medieval Europe, but also a sustained examination of the relationship
between materiality and belief
