Compare Pragmatic Utopias by Rosemary Horrox, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Spanning the artificial divide between medieval and early modern history, this collection of essays shows how men and women tried to put their ideals into practice, sometimes alone, but more commonly within the shared environment of cloister, college or city. The volume is presented to the distinguished medievalist Barrie Dobson in celebration of his 70th birthday, and takes the reader from a rural landscape to the London of Thomas More, and from the forests of Robin Hood to the central law courts. | Pragmatic Utopias by Rosemary Horrox, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
