Resum

This book documents marginal illumination during the Middle Ages with 739 black and white photos with historical notes. The droleries provide a detailed record of the ideological and cultural climate of the period. The author, Lilian Randall holds a doctorate from Radcliffe College (1955) with a dissertation on medieval marginalia, some of the earliest work addressing the topic per se in art history. In 1958 her article in the Art Bulletin, "Exempla and their Influence on Gothic Marginal Illumination," won the A. Kingsley Porter Prize from the College Art Association.
