Toward a Global Middle Ages: Encountering the World through Illuminate - Getty Museum Store

Edited by Bryan C. Keene Illuminated manuscripts and illustrated or decorated books—like today’s museums— preserve a rich array of information about how premodern peoples conceived of and perceived the world, its many cultures, and everyone’s place in it.

Through essays and case studies, the volume’s multidisciplinary contributors expand the historiography, chronology, and geography of manuscript studies to embrace a diversity of objects, individuals, narratives, and materials from Africa, Asia, Australasia, and the Americas—an approach that both engages with and contributes to the emerging field of scholarly inquiry known as the Global Middle Ages.
