2.The Discarded Image: An Introduction to Medieval and Renaissance Literature (Canto)The Discarded Image: An Introduction to Medieval and Renaissance Literature (Canto)
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $17.09

Customer Review:
It is difficult to praise "The Discarded Image" too highly. It can be read with profit many times. Other reviewers have told you why.
That said, I would like to say something to those who have read and enjoyed the Space Trilogy, especially "Out of the Silent Planet" and "Perelandra." In writing... more info

from Cambridge University Press
Price: $8.80

Customer Review:
I read Sophocles Antigone for graduate Humanities class. It is an essential reading to understand Greek Tragedy. It is also a foundation stone of literature in studying Western Civilization.
Antigone, daughter of Oedipus in 3-cycle play, faces capital punishment for burying her brother who... more info

from Cambridge University Press
Price: $31.49

Customer Review:
No question that this book that sums up 10 years worth of articles by one of the most remarkable scholars of his times is a must-read for anybody interested by economics and economic history. That being said the book has its defaults. Some are linked to the difficulty to gather good sources from the... more info

5.The Foundations of Modern Science in the Middle Ages:Their Religious, Institutional and Intellectual ContextsThe Foundations of Modern Science in the Middle Ages:Their Religious, Institutional and Intellectual Contexts
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $22.49

Customer Review:
I read this and wrote a paper about it for a Humanities course. A good book to compare it to is Rodney Starks' _For the Glory of God_, which takes Grant's ideas about science a bit too far.
Grant provides an all encompassing theory on how science emerged. I don't think the topic could be... more info

7.The Medieval Spains (Cambridge Medieval Textbooks)The Medieval Spains (Cambridge Medieval Textbooks)
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $25.19

Customer Review:
The title of this book is not a proper choice for a book which covers the history of what is now Spain long before the medieval period. Reilly starts with the Roman conquest of the Iberian Peninsula during the late Imperial period and ends with the expulsion of the Muslims and Jews in the 15th... more info

8.The Cambridge Old English ReaderThe Cambridge Old English Reader
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $33.29

Customer Review:
You should really know a few things before purchasing this book.
(1.) Marsden offers far too many marginal glosses. I understand the need to gloss difficult words or unscramble problematic phrases. But basic verbs like "sculan" and "magan" are consistently glossed throughout this text, and... more info

from Cambridge University Press
Price: $26.99

Customer Review:
Like the vast majority of people nowadays I discovered Old English as an undergraduate, rather than as a casual reader in my spare time. Initially I was bored and sceptical. "Oh my God this is like German, why do I have to study it?" I thought. However, the Anglo-Saxons began to grow on me... more info
