Cambridge University Press The Cambridge Companion To Matthew Paris

Matthew Paris is one of the most remarkable and renowned figures in the cultural history of medieval England.A career-monk at the influential Benedictine abbey of St Albans, Paris' creative work bears witness to the rich intellectual, artistic, social and political environment of the monasteries and their lasting impact on the wider world.His compelling accounts of recent history and the lives of legendary saints and churchmen are a distinctive and valuable guide to the emergence of the English kingdom and its place in European Christendom.His accomplished and vivid artwork brings into focus both the craft skill and visual sensibility stimulated by the medieval Church.This systematic survey, the first published for almost seventy years, brings together expert scholarship and offers fresh, interdisciplinary perspectives on Paris', his life's work as writer, artist, cartographer and maker of manuscript books, and its enduring legacy.
