This book argues that representational practices were enshrined in the interpretation of "This is my body" referring to the representation of Christ's body which no longer existed. Kobialka takes four epistemological fragments to illustrate his argument that images of the male and female body recreated in medieval drama and theatre were constantly changing and affected by different modes of seeing until they were stabilised by the constitutions of the Fourth Latern Council in 1215.
