Key articles on the Bayeux tapestry collected in one volume,
providing a comprehensive companion to its study. This volume
presents a selection from the classic literature on the tapestry,
providing a comprehensive companion to its study. The articles have
been carefully chosen in order to provide a strong, balanced
coverage of most aspects of the tapestry; all the major themes -
the material fabric of the artefact, its origin, its relation to
other early sources, its visual language, the form and function of
the inscriptions, the work's general meaning and purpose, and the
way it was perceived - are discussed in authoritative contributions
collected here. The volume also includes substantial new essays by
the editor on studying the Bayeux tapestry, and on its origin, art,
and message. Contributors: RICHARD GAMESON, CHARLES STOTHARD,
