Introducing the Medieval Dragon | Thomas Honegger

1 post | 1 read | 1 to read

Arnold, Martin. 2018. The Dragon. Fear and Power. London: Reaktion Books. My book is much shorter and focusses on the medieval (European) dragon, while Martin’s book covers all centuries and also the Asian tradition.

Introducing the Medieval Dragon | Thomas Honegger

pick

Dive into the dragon‘s hoard through this dense but enticing exploration into the medieval imaginationā€”in religion, from the Bible to the legend of Saint Margaret bursting from a dragon‘s belly; in science, through the different classes of dragon in the medieval encyclopedic tradition; in folklore through the story of the Dragon of Mordiford; and in literarureā€”in Beowulf, Bevis of Hampton, the story of Sigurd and the dragon Fafnir, and more.
