About This Item
Harvey Miller, 1975 4to (34 cm), 235 pp. Publisher's cloth, gilt-lettered spine (minor shelf-wear). "The book contains a catalogue of just over a hundred illuminated manuscripts of the period 1066-1190. It should be stressed that this is not intended to be anything like complete corpus, but rather a selection drawn from immensely rich material. Same fine manuscripts from particularly well-represented centres have been omitted in favor of less well-known examples. It was felt that there should be a good selection of secular books to balance the inevitable predominance of Psalters and Bibles, but this does not imply the inclusion of every single illustrated astronomical text." (from the Foreword).
