Sobre este libro
‘To rid Bath of scorpions, first one must create an image of a scorpion curled up backwards as if stinging itself . . . ’ Writer, scientist, philosopher and dabbler in magic Adelard of Bath travelled widely throughout the Mediterranean world, wrote about what he had learned, and produced pioneering translations of important Arabic texts.Simon Webb’s highly accessible biography of this celebrated Bathonian sets his life against the background of the twelfth century in Europe and the Middle East; a time of growing enlightenment, but also of superstition, instability and conflict.
