This book examines the wide and important geographical tradition that arose from the description of the world in the 'Imago mundi' - a medieval encyclopedic bestseller, almost unrivalled in popularity from its composition in the 1110s well into the age of print.
Natalia I. Petrovskaia holds MA, MPhil and PhD degrees from the University of Cambridge. She is currently Assistant Professor in Celtic at Utrecht University. This book is the result of her recent NWO Veni Project, 'Defining Europe in Medieval European Geographical Discourse'.
