    Hardback, XXXIX+191 p., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503049519. This volume contains a critical edition of two previously unedited anonymous poems, the Liber prefigurationum Christi et Ecclesie and the Liber de gratia Novi Testamenti. Both works seem to have been written in France during the reign of King Philip I (1060-1108). The Liber prefigurationum is a compendium of biblical typology. It versifies the most salient episodes of the Old Testament, from Genesis to Maccabees, as prefiguring the incarnation of Christ and the foundation of the Christian Church. The Liber de gratia presents the life of Christ from the point of view of its significance for all believers. Both poems are meant to educate their readers and guide them on their journey towards moral improvement and ultimate salvation. Languages: Latin, English. 0 g.

    Hardback, LXXXI+318 p., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503048833. The volume 'Opera Poetica Alexandri Essebiensis' contains the critical edition of the previously unedited poetic works of Alexander of Ashby (1148/1154 - 1208/1214), the Breuissima comprehensio historiarum and the Liber Festiualis. The Breuissima comprehensio historiarum, which exists in three medieval redactions, represents a brief versification of the historical books of the Bible, whereas the Liber Festiualis is written as a mnemonic device epitomizing the lives of seventy-four saints in the order of the ecclesiastical calendar. The critical edition of the these two compositions brings to light the complete poetical production of Alexander of Ashby. The work of this previously neglected poet is very important for our understanding of the cultural climate in the late twelfth - early thirteenth century England. The author was not only a literary figure, but also an important local dignitary, whose activities as a papal judge delegate are recorded in a number of charters from the period between 1181 and 1205.
