Reviews

"""Mary Franklin-Brown has taken on the very difficult task of making the medieval encyclopedia accessible as literature and developed an original and very effective method for doing so. It has required the powers of a sophisticated literary critic together with an art historian's ability to interpret manuscript illustrations and a codicologist's understanding of the layout of the manuscript page. The result is a tour de force."" (Winthrop Wetherbee, Cornell University)"""
