• Resumen

  • The Eucharistic monstrance, which appeared in the second half of the 13th century, is the receptacle of the Corpus Christi to allow its adoration. Being an essential object in the liturgy of the late Middle Ages, during the 1500s, it became the subject of important controversies on the conception of the sacred: rejected by Protestant currents but ardently defended by Catholics, the Eucharistic monstrance was therefore at the heart of many discourses throughout the 16th and 17th century, whether being literary or artistic. This article aims to question the position, the use, and the impact of this important liturgical piece in the great theological debates of the early modern period.
