Sommario/riassunto |
|
Challenging the notion that monastic culture was in decline towards the end of the middle ages, this title looks at the work of Thomas Walsingham - one of the most prolific English writers of the period - demonstrating that there is evidence of a revival comparable to the continetal Renaissance. |
