Books by S. Harrison Thomson

This 1940 book constitutes an extensive bibliographical study of the works of Robert Grosseteste, the 13th-century Bishop of Lincoln. Over 140 libraries were visited and approximately 2500 manuscripts consulted during the preparation of the text, with many manuscripts being examined without prior knowledge that they contained material by Grosseteste.

In this book Professor Thomson provides 132 characteristic specimens of the period 1100-1500, reproduced by lithography (in all cases in the original size).
