The Trinity Apocalypse has long been considered the finest manuscript of its kind. The text of the Book of Revelation is accompanied by a commentary and by a remarkable series of illustrations that depict the dream of John in vivid detail. Written and illustrated in England in the mid-thirteenth century, with a text in French, it stands at the height of artistic achievement. Amidst the figures in the dream there are people and animals familiar in contemporary life, depicted with a colour and vitality whose appeal speaks over the centuries. The manuscript has belonged to Trinity College, Cambridge, since the seventeenth century. In this volume, a group of experts have come together to consider its background, illustration, palaeography, texts, language and history. An accompanying CD-ROM contains the whole text, with an English translation. The collection, edited by the Librarian of Trinity College, is the first occasion in which the manuscript has been studied in such detail.
