St. Albans and the Markyate Psalter
Medieval Institute Publications (Verlag)
978-1-58044-258-9 (ISBN)
One of the most compelling and provocative books of twelfth-century England, the Markyate Psalter was probably produced at St. Albans Abbey between 1120 and 1140. Heralded as a high point of English Romanesque illumination, the manuscript contains the Chanson de St. Alexis. Leading scholars of twelfth-century manuscript studies explore the Psalter, understanding it through new methodologies, pursuing innovative lines of inquiry. The collection shines fresh light on a well-known manuscript, and broadens the discourse about the book and its readers.
Kristen Collins is associate curator in the Department of Manuscripts at the J. Paul Getty Museum. Matthew Fisher is associate professor of English at the University of California, Los Angeles.
