Rövid leírás:
This groundbreaking book, one of four on the ?Elements?, presents interdisciplinary approaches to the topic of ?Earth? in the Middle Ages, ranging geographically across Europe and beyond and chronologically from the late antique period to the late Middle Ages.
Hosszú leírás:
The fourteen chapters and poem of this volume reflect the centrality of the element Earth in medieval thought and life, a centrality inherited from classical antiquity, and fundamental too in Judaeo-Christian and Islamic traditions. The chapters also reflect the multifarious nature of the ways that Earth was experienced and understood in the Middle Ages.
