Most significantly, they move bestiaries out of their specialized scholarly corner into the wider world of animal-thinking across Christian, Jewish, and Islamic cultures, and stake a claim for animals as a central meeting-ground for medieval and modern sensibilities.\u003cbr\u003e Contributors are Emma Campbell, Marc M. Epstein, Erica Fudge, Larisa Grollemond, Rebecca Hill, Elizabeth Morrison, Julie Orlemanski, Alexandra Paddock, and Debra Higgs Strickland.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Debra Higgs Strickland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004429697\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004429697\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/24\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.10w x 0.81d","brand":"Debra Higgs Strickland","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48066404843775,"sku":"9789004429697","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_787af0e2-1775-4f5e-995e-ba320ac07f76.jpg?v=1768678310","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/medieval-bestiaries-debra-higgs-strickland-9789004429697","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
