"Romance of the Rose" by Sarah Kay
In Puritan New England, with its abiding concern for things not of this world and its distrust of forms and ceremonies, one art flourished: the symbolic art of mortuary monument stonecarvers. This carefully researched, beautifully illustrated work was the first to consider this art in depth as a meaningful aesthetic-spiritual expression. It is reissued for today's readers, with a new preface outlining changes in the field since the book appeared in 1966.Sarah Kay is a University of Cambridge Reader in French and Occitan Literature. The Troubadours: An Introduction is her most recent work (as co-editor).
