De Diversis Artibus : The Various Arts (Oxford Medieval Texts)

Editorial Reviews Book Description As far as is known, Theophilus's was the only treatise on almost all of the major arts that was produced during the thousand years of the Middle Ages. His exceptional 12th-century treatise expresses the knowledge of both a scholar and craftsman of wall paintings, manuscript paintings, stained
glass windows, ivory carvings, and metalwork. First published in 1961 and for many years out of print, Dodwell's definitive reconstruction of Theophilus's text includes an English translation on facing pages and full introductory and textual commentary. Language Notes Text: English, Latin
