In the beginning was the word, and in the Middle Ages were kings,
princes, and high-ranking religious members whose wealth and
influence produced illustrated bibles of extraordinary
craftsmanship. This edition brings together 50 of the finest
medieval bible manuscripts from the Austrian National Library. With
examples from every epoch of the Middle Ages, the collection
explores visualizations of the bible in various theological and
historical contexts. In impeccable reproduction quality, these
stunning images may be appreciated as much as art historical
treasures as they are important religious artifacts. Texts by
Andreas Fingernagel, Stephan Füssel, Christian Gastgeber, and a
team of 15 scientific authors describe each manuscript in detail,
exploring both the evolution of the Bible and the medieval
understanding of history. A glossary of important terms is also
included so that those not versed in bible history can enjoy the
texts as well.
