Contributions Toward A History Of Arabico-Gothic Culture V4: Physiologus Studies (1921) is a book written by Leo Wiener. The book is the fourth volume in a series that explores the history of Arabico-Gothic culture. This volume focuses on the study of Physiologus, a text that originated in Alexandria, Egypt in the 2nd century AD. The text is a collection of moralizing tales about animals, plants, and other natural phenomena, and it was widely read and translated throughout the Middle Ages. Wiener examines the influence of Physiologus on Arabico-Gothic culture, particularly in the areas of literature, art, and religion. He also provides a detailed analysis of the text itself, including its sources and its significance as a cultural artifact.
