Abstract
The book reviewed argues that the meaning and context of Anglo-Norman histories cannot be fully understood without attention to the visual layout of the entire page. By comparing extant copies of the same texts, the book considers what factors influence the mise-en-page, and how these manuscripts circulated and were amended through time.
