The first comprehensive study of how European books were made and used in the historical period known as the 'long twelfth century' (1075–1225). The book takes a multidisciplinary approach, blending book history (codicology, palaeography, art-history) and contextual studies (reading, libraries) with text-based investigations in such fields as medicine, classics, and philosophy.
