Description
This book explores views of the natural world in the late Middle Ages, especially as expressed in Livre de chasse (Book of the Hunt), the most influential hunting book of the era.
It shows that killing and maiming, suffering and the death of animals were not insignificant topics to late medieval men, but constituted a complex set of issues. These could provoke very contradictory thoughts and feelings that varied according to social and cultural milieus, as well as particular cases and circumstances.
