4. The Royal Touch in Early Modern England : Politics Medicine and Sin
by Stephen Brogan 
Price: USD 67.47
Dealer: Biblio, Barnaby
Description: Woodbridge: The Boydell Press, Date: 2015. Softcover. Very Good Condition. 23.7 x 16.5 x 2.3 cm. An excellent copy in great condition. Only light wear to cover. All pages clean, crisp and fresh. Publisher's note: "The royal touch was the religious healing ceremony at which the monarch stroked the sores on the face and necks of people who had scrofula in order to heal them in imitation of Christ. The rite was practiced by all the Tudor and Stuart sovereigns apart from William III, reaching its zenith during the Restoration when some 100,000 people were touched by Charles II and James II. This book, the first devoted to the royal touch for almost a century, integrates political, religious, medical and intellectual history. The custom is analyzed from above and below: the royal touch projected monarchical authority, but at the same time the great demand for it created numerous problems for those organizing the ceremony. The healing rite is situated in the context of a number of early modern debates, including the cessation of miracles and the nature of the body politics. The book also assesses contemporary attitudes towards the royal touch, from belief through ambivalence to skepticism."--Page 4 of cover Size: 23.7 x 16.5 x 2.3 cm. xi, 265 pp .
