Professor C. R. Dodwell wrote with authority on most aspects of
Western European medieval art. From his doctoral work on The
Canterbury School of Illumination, he continued to maintain a
steady output of important publications until his death in 1994.
This book brings together most of his major papers on the subject
of Anglo-Saxon, French and Norman art, and includes the study of
the Reichenau school he published with D. H. Turner. There are
papers on the major English illuminated manuscripts of the eleventh
and twelfth centuries, and studies of metalworking and the Bayeux
tapestry. There is a preface by Paul Crossley. Papers include: The
Bayeux Tapestry and the French Secular Epic; Un manuscrit enlumine
de Jumiege au British Museum; Techniques of Manuscript Painting in
Anglo-Saxon Manuscripts; La miniature Anglo-Saxonne; The Final Copy
of the Utrecht Psalter and its Relationship with the Utrecht and
Eadwine Psalters; Gold Metallurgy in the Twelfth Century: the De
Diversis Artibus of Theophilus the Monk; The Meaning of Sculptor in
the Romanesque Period; Medieval Attitudes to the Artist; Seculars
in Monasteries; Secular Artists; L'originalite iconographique de
plusiers illustrations Anglo-Saxonnes de l'Ancien Testament; Losses
of Anglo-Saxon Art in the Middle Ages; Reichenau Reconsidered: a
