rif. PJH31983Giles 2010. Mint in publishers cloth in like dustjacket still shrink wrapped. 176pp. Illustrated throughout. This beautifully illustrated volume provides an in-depth study of the production of altarpieces in medieval Spain and examines the artistic overlap between the Jewish and Christian communities that this industry spawned against a backdrop of rising Franciscan and Dominican power and the growth of Christian Messianism which would culminate in the Expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1492. Altarpieces were a significant force in Aragon's economy during the 14th and 15th centuries and the authors explore the methods of production workshop locations and shop styles within the context of the considerable interaction between the Jewish and Christian communities in Spain at this time. Both communities were engaged in producing retablos large multi-panelled altarpieces as well as Latin and Hebrew religious manuscripts and this study analyses how both media portrayed Jews and Christians through dress and appearance.

2008rif. VSS/254/H/6866/5224VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture. Old Testament VII. Psalms 1 to 50 Summary: This volume gathers patristic commentary on Psalms 1–50 drawing from early Christian writers roughly 2nd–8th centuries to show how the Church Fathers read the Psalms christologically ecclesially and spiritually. The ACCS series aims to recover the early Church's exegetical tradition presenting short thematically arranged excerpts rather than modern critical analysis.
