Description

Explore the history of book culture through Libraries and Books in Medieval England. This work examines the massive loss of literary collections when King Henry VIII suppressed religious houses, causing many libraries to be scattered or destroyed. By looking at what survived and analyzing medieval library catalogues, this book helps reconstruct the transmission of culture in the Middle Ages. It provides a way to understand the surviving evidence of a once-vast book economy. This title is part of The Lyell Lectures for 2018-19 and offers a deep look into how twentieth-century scholarship has worked to discover what these lost collections once held.
