Informazioni su questo libro

This book offers a vivid account of English academic life. The author describes her first weeks in England as a postgraduate student at the Courtauld Institute of Art, University of London, and recounts in detail her encounter and challenges with the Winchester Psalter (British Library, MS Cotton Nero C. IV), a profusely illustrated manuscript that ranks among the undisputed treasures of English Romanesque art. Following this biographical account, an essay provides readers with an insight into the processes involved in the production of medieval miniatures and their creative fantasy. The prologue to this paper is written by Dr John Lowden, a leading researcher and historian of medieval art.
