Anglo-Saxon Gestures and the Roman Stage - Cambridge Studies in Anglo-Saxon England
C. R. Dodwell
This 1999 book is concerned with the pictorial language of gesture revealed in Anglo-Saxon art, and its debt to classical Rome. Reginald Dodwell, an eminent art historian, notes a striking similarity of both form and meaning between Anglo-Saxon gestures and those in illustrated manuscripts of the plays of Terence.
