Reader's note

Learn more about the history of Christmas with this unforgettable vintage book. In the middle ages, the emotions that felt by the story of the nativity were more direct and immediate, accordingly the carols and poems that were composed, tended to have a frank reverence as well as a vigour and plainspoken openness that is largely absent from the modern sentimental approach to Christmas. In this collection of poetry and art, Eleanor Sayre has assembled a generous sample of largely forgotten works to make a book to celebrate Christmas in a fresh and splendid way. With many poems being presented in French and Latin followed by an English translation, this title is designed to be read by an open fire while the snow falls outside.
