Symbolic history of the European Middle Ages
29.99 €
Michel Pastoureau (b. 1947), historian-medievalist, head of the Department of the History of Western Symbolism at the École Pratique des Hautes Etudes (Paris), vice-president of the French Society of Heraldry, is at the origin of the relatively new scientific discipline of symbolic history. The archaeology and semantics of color, the emergence of coats of arms and flags, animal trials, the emergence and evolution of chess, the mythology of flowers and trees, the bestiary of fables and the iconography of Judas, the influence of the chivalric novel on society, and the history of the best-selling novel of the early nineteenth century are the topics he deals with in this book, the material for which was collected over three decades. In The Symbolic History of the European Middle Ages, Prof. Pastoureau summarizes his work on the history of medieval symbolism, which brought him fame and glory as a pioneer.
