Synopsis
Manuscripts and printed books reveal the lively "trafficing of ideas" in Europe in the Middle Ages and the Early Modern period that superseded any politics. Material ranges from Ptolemy's "Cosmographia" to a Pilgrim's guide to the Holy Land to an Arab medical manual which became a European textbook to a Marco Polo frontispiece to a page of Terence's "Comedies" to Johannes Hevelius' "map" of the moon. Provenance, literature, format, folio, quarto or octavo. Distributed by Woodstocker Books.
