Derived from sessions held during the 2007 conference of the Medieval Academy of America, held in Toronto, the 7 papers of this volume consider cases and questions of art and architecture
typically overlooked or considered to one side of mainstream European medieval experience. The topics include Jewish art and cultural exchange, Nasrid and Mudejar decoration, Norman stucco in
Sicily, medieval Christian art in China, and Scandinavian art. The volume, which is not indexed, is illustrated with b&w images of servicable quality. Editors Caskey, Adam S. Cohen, and
Linda Safran are in the department of art at the U. of Toronto, Canada. Annotation 穢2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
