Book Synopsis
"A remarkable analysis of an important medieval text... This work will surely initiate new studies of the precolonial frame of mind and the role of distinct versions of medieval manuscripts in the shaping of medieval understanding."-Sixteenth Century Journal

Trade Review
"Writing East is a remarkable analysis of an important medieval text. . . . Higgins persuasively argues for the multiplicity of medieval European understandings of the East that had important consequences for several centuries. This work will surely initiate new studies of the precolonial frame of mind and the role of distinct versions of medieval manuscripts in the shaping of medieval understanding." * Sixteenth Century Journal *
