Abrams 1998 Hardcover in DJ Good/Good, some wear along edges of dj Quarto 176 pp 150 illus, 120 plates in full color " Michael Camille explores the metaphoric and social settings of love and its myths and paradoxes.""Camille explores the symbolic and social settings of love, the myths and paradoxes of love as an elite social code, and the erotic feelings sometimes aroused even by religious objects of desire. The textiles, ivories, chests, jewels, and girdles, given as gifts and love-tokens, demonstrate that there was nothing chaste or sublimated about Medieval love, every aspect of which was depicted by artists and described by poets without inhibition."
