Synopsis
The essays in this collection are attempts to understand medieval aesthetic principles and products, not to champion the numerical approach. All the essays share a confidence that when Chaucer, for example, wrote alle thynges been ordeyned and nombred, he was enuciating a philosophical and aesthetic principle of fundamental importance to medieval thought.
