Book Synopsis Introducing the Medieval Swan by : Natalie J. Goodison
Book excerpt: What comes to mind when we think of swans? Likely their beauty in domestic settings, their preserved status, their association with royalty, and possibly the phrase 'swan song'. This book explores the emergence of each of these ideas, starting with an examination of the medieval swan in natural history, exploring classical writings and their medieval interpretations.
