17. MEDIAEVAL, LORE.
From Bartholomaeus Anglicus. Edited with notes, index and glossary by
ROBERT STEELE. Preface by the late WILLIAM MORRIS. Frontispiece, an old
illumination, representing Astrologers using Astrolabes.
[The book is drawn from one of the most widely-read works of mediaeval
times. Its popularity is explained by its scope, which comprises
explanations of allusions to natural objects met with in Scripture and
elsewhere. It was, in fact, an account of the properties of things in
general.]
11. THE ROMANCE OF FULK FITZWARINE.
Newly translated from the Anglo-French by ALICE KEMP-WELCH, with an
introduction by Professor BRANDIN. Frontispiece, Whittington Castle in
Shropshire, the seat of the Fitzwarines.
45. THE SONG OF ROLAND.
Newly translated from the old French by Mrs. CROSLAND. Introduction by
Professor BRANDIN, University of London. Frontispiece.
22. EARLY LIVES OF CHARLEMAGNE.
Translated and edited by A.J. GRANT. With frontispiece representing an
early bronze figure of Charlemagne from the Musee Carnavalet, Paris.
We have here given us two "Lives" of Charlemagne by contemporary
authorities--one by Eginhard and the other by the Monk of St. Gall. Very
different in style, when brought together in one volume each supplies the
deficiencies of the other.
35. WINE, WOMEN, AND SONG.
