    Softcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Pictorial soft cover. 8"x5" oblong. 177 pages, + Index. Beautifully illustrated throughout by Mike Nelson of German locations. Originally published in Germany, here the Editors have shown all of the recipe titles in both English and German. For the most part, this collection of recipes seem like simple rustic family meals intended to serve 6-8 people. Included with each is a menu with tradional sides and often beer. There are exceptions such as the various Schnitzel recipes which suggest wine and guests, but retain clear, straightforward instruction. Table of Contents (in English) Beef; Pork; Various Meats; Fish & Fowl; Soups; Vegetables & Knodel; Salads; Sauces & Herb Butters; From the Oven; Family Dishes; Index. Here are just a few recipes to drool over: Schweinebraten (Roast Pork). Sauerfleisch. Of Sauerfleisch the author writes "Sauerfleisch is highly spiced dish peculiar to the Allgau. I have never seen it anywhere else. You will either love it or hate it, no one ever feels neutral." Wachteln (Quail) to be served with Fladlesuppe (Pancake Soup). Condition is Very Good, or better. The book is clean and solid however the edges have toned with age and there is sticker residue and some discoloration on the back cover. Remains a giftable book. ; 8vo.…

    Paperback. Condition: New. Wide-ranging examination of women's achievements in and influence on many aspects of medieval culture.Medieval women were normally denied access to public educational institutions, and so also denied the gateways to most leadership positions. Modern scholars have therefore tended to study learned medieval women as simply anomalies, and women generally as victims. This volume, however, argues instead for a via media. Drawing upon manuscript and archival sources, scholars here show that more medieval women attained some form of learning than hitherto imagined, and that women with such legal, social or ecclesiastical knowledge also often exercised professional or communal leadership. Bringing together contributors from the disciplines of literature, history and religion, this volume challenges several traditional views: firstly, the still-prevalent idea that women's intellectual accomplishments were limited to the Latin literate. The collection therefore engages heavily with vernacular writings (in Anglo-Saxon, Middle English, French, Dutch, German and Italian), and also with material culture (manuscript illumination, stained glass, fabric and jewelry) for evidence of women's advanced capabilities. But in doing so, the contributors strive to avoid the equally problematic view that women's accomplishments were somehow limited to the vernacular and the material. So several essays examine women at work with the sacred languages of the three Abrahamic traditions (Latin, Arabic and Hebrew). And a third traditional view is also interrogated: that women were somehow more "original" for their lack of learning and and dependence on their mother tongue. Scholars here agree wholeheartedly that women could be daring thinkers in any language; they engage readily with women's learnedness wherever it can be found.…

    Paperback. Condition: New. Wide-ranging examination of women's achievements in and influence on many aspects of medieval culture.Medieval women were normally denied access to public educational institutions, and so also denied the gateways to most leadership positions. Modern scholars have therefore tended to study learned medieval women as simply anomalies, and women generally as victims. This volume, however, argues instead for a via media. Drawing upon manuscript and archival sources, scholars here show that more medieval women attained some form of learning than hitherto imagined, and that women with such legal, social or ecclesiastical knowledge also often exercised professional or communal leadership. Bringing together contributors from the disciplines of literature, history and religion, this volume challenges several traditional views: firstly, the still-prevalent idea that women's intellectual accomplishments were limited to the Latin literate. The collection therefore engages heavily with vernacular writings (in Anglo-Saxon, Middle English, French, Dutch, German and Italian), and also with material culture (manuscript illumination, stained glass, fabric and jewelry) for evidence of women's advanced capabilities. But in doing so, the contributors strive to avoid the equally problematic view that women's accomplishments were somehow limited to the vernacular and the material. So several essays examine women at work with the sacred languages of the three Abrahamic traditions (Latin, Arabic and Hebrew). And a third traditional view is also interrogated: that women were somehow more "original" for their lack of learning and and dependence on their mother tongue.
