The book includes detailed analyses of specific passages from the Physiologus, as well as comparisons with other works in the Arabico-Gothic tradition. Overall, Contributions Toward A History Of Arabico-Gothic Culture V4: Physiologus Studies is a scholarly work that sheds light on an important aspect of the cultural history of the Middle East and Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
