The Cambridge History of the Book in Britain 7 Volume Hardback Set 1100 synopsis

This is the first history of the book in Britain from the Norman conquest until the early fifteenth century. The twenty-six experts in this volume discuss the book of manuscripts from a variety of angles: as a physical object (making, form, writing and ornamentation); its purpose and reading (books for monasteries, church liturgy, primary and advanced education, judicial entertainment); Medical treatises, law, management and music).

In all of this, the broader social and cultural context is taken into consideration, as are the different relations with continental Europe. The folder includes a complete bibliography and 80 black and white plates..
