Isidore of Seville and his Reception in the
Early Middle Ages

Transmitting and Transforming Knowledge
Edited by Andrew Fear and Jamie Wood
 
This volume represents a cross section of the various approaches scholars have taken toward the writings of Isidore of Seville (560–636). The essays explore his sources, how he selected and arranged them for posterity, and how his legacy was reflected in later generations’ work across the early medieval West. Rich in archival detail, this collection provides a wealth of interdisciplinary expertise on one of history’s greatest intellectuals.

Re-forming Texts, Music, and Church Art
in the Early Modern North

Edited by Tuomas M.S. Lehtonen and Linda Kaljundi

Our historical understanding of the Reformation in northern Europe has tended to privilege the idea of disruption and innovation over continuity - yet even the most powerful reformation movements drew on and exchanged ideas with earlier cultural and religious practices. This volume attempts to right the balance, bringing together a roster of experts to trace the continuities between the medieval and early modern period in the Nordic realm, while enabling us to see the Reformation and its changes in a new light.
