This volume as it now appears is far more than a “beginner’s” textbook in Medieval Latin. In its own right it is a valuable anthology that encapsulates many aspects of the medieval world and offers its readers much guidance for further study. Reading Medieval Latin will become an essential tool for teachers and an instructive, stimulating, and enjoyable volume for students.
