The Mirror of Salvation: Speculum Humanae Salvationis - An Edition of British Library Blockbook G.11784 Book

This full translation, and reproduction of all 58 woodcuts, of this 15th century blockbook, offers a key to understanding the religious climate of the Middle Ages. The translators have provided detailed commentary to explain the blockbook's biblical passages and mythological legends, and to illuminate its central focus on the roles of the Virgin Mary and Christ in human salvation. It also gives an insight into Medieval preaching, religious art and drama, and the relationship between the visual and the verbal in that period.Read More
