Toward a Global Middle Ages - Encountering the World through Illuminated Manuscripts
This important and overdue book examines illuminated manuscripts and other book arts of the Global Middle Ages.Illuminated manuscripts and illustrated or decorated books--like today's museums--preserve a rich array of information about how premodern peoples conceived of and perceived the world, its many cultures, and everyone's place in it. Through essays and case studies, the volume's multidisciplinary contributors expand the historiography, chronology, and geography of manuscript studies to embrace a diversity of objects, individuals, narratives, and materials from Africa, Often a Eurocentric field of study, manuscripts are prisms through which we can glimpse the interconnected global history of humanity.Toward a Global Middle Ages is the first publication to examine decorated books produced across the globe during the period traditionally known as medieval.
