Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts

Twelve Journeys into the Medieval World

Christopher de Hamel

From the late sixth-century Gospels of Saint Augustine written as Christian literacy was emerging, through the shift to secular book production, to the extraordinarily ornate Spinola Hours created c.1515–20, Christopher de Hamel examines twelve manuscripts that characterize their era. While conveying the thrill of ‘meeting’ each volume and what can be learned from handling it, his illustrated study also discusses how each one was made, its provenance, and what it reveals about medieval history. Slightly off-mint and felt-tip mark on upper or lower trimmed edge.
