Media Reviews
a Georges Duby was one of the leading medievalists of the twentieth century, a historian with a long--standing interest in art. This book compresses the knowledge of a lifetime into an elegant, lapidary essay packed with perceptive comments on both art and society, making it as indispensable for specialists as it is accessible to students and art--loving general readers.a Peter Burke, Professor of Cultural History at the University of Cambridge and Fellow of Emmanuel College, Cambridge
