Publisher's Synopsis

For three hundred years more 'Books of Hours' were made than any other type of book, even the Bible. From 1225, when the first 'Books of Hours' began to appear, to 1571, when during the Counter-Reformation Pope Pius V prohibited the use of all existing 'Books of Hours', nearly every European family of certain means owned a 'Book of Hours'. This title presents research on this 'medieval bestseller' in 21 essays by international scholars.
