Riassunto

First presented at a 2006 symposium on the island of Muhu in Estonia, the 11 essays of this collection offer readings of myth and image concerning medieval ideas of the frightening and strange people and lands beyond known borders, but also of more subtle representations of liminality, as for example in the motif of silence in reference to God in early Christian and medieval theology. The contributors are medievalists in Europe. The volume, which is not indexed, is distributed by Books International. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
