Isidore of Seville (560-636) was a crucial figure in the
preservation and sharing of classical and early Christian
knowledge. His compilations of the works of earlier authorities
formed an essential part of monastic education for centuries. Due
to the vast amount of information he gathered and its wide
dissemination in the Middle Ages, Pope John Paul II even named
Isidore the patron saint of the Internet in 1997. This volume
represents a cross section of the various approaches scholars have
taken toward Isidore's writings. The essays explore his sources,
how he selected and arranged them for posterity, and how his legacy
was reflected in later generations' work across the early medieval
West. Rich in archival detail, this collection provides a wealth of
interdisciplinary expertise on one of history's greatest
intellectuals.
