With many excellent books on medieval stained glass available, the reader of this anthology may well ask: what is the contribution of this collection? In this book, we have chosen to step away from national, chronological, and regional models. Instead, we started with scholars doing interesting work in stained glass, and called upon colleagues to contribute studies that represent the diversity of approaches to the medium, as well as up-to-date bibliographies for work in the field.





Contributors are: Wojciech Balus, Karine Boulanger, Sarah Brown, Elizabeth Carson Pastan, Madeline H. Caviness, Michael W. Cothren, Francesca DellAcqua, Uwe Gast, Françoise Gatouillat, Anne Granboulan, Anne F. Harris, Christine Hediger, Michel Hérold, Timothy B. Husband, Alyce A. Jordan, Herbert L. Kessler, David King, Brigitte Kurmann-Schwarz, Claudine Lautier, Ashley J. Laverock, Meredith P. Lillich, Isabelle Pallot-Frossard, Hartmut Scholz, Mary B. Shepard, Ellen M. Shortell, Nancy M. Thompson.

Arvustused

'This is a rich cornucopia of studies [ ...] [ the material] is all of a high calibre, and spans a wide diversity of subjects, approaches and methodologies. The 193 illustrations are mostly in colour, and are supplemented by a considerable number of very useful references to on-line image databases. There is an introduction by the editors which orients the reader both to the book and to stained glass studies more generally, and a general index is provided. This book thus offers a great deal and caters to many different interests. It serves both the scholar and the student, with clear, authoritative contributions, each with an up-to-date bibliography, that will interest a wide variety of readers, including not just art historians but anyone interested in the Middle Ages, or in medievalism. It can certainly be read through cover to cover, but the contributions are independent from one another, facilitating a wide variety of selective reading strategies. This is a very useful book.'
