Synopsis
This is a story of faith, sacrifice, violence and corruption. Art historian Janina Ramirez discovers how monasteries shaped all aspects of medieval Britain and created a dazzling array of art, architecture and literature. She explores how they evolved from a cult of Christianity involving extreme isolation and self-deprivation into powerhouses of Anglo-Saxon art, industry and learning.
