The Pearl
The Consortium for the Teaching of the Middle Ages (TEAMS), 1998
"I list here several accounts, beginning with Pliny, whose remarks are repeated throughout the medieval and early modern period. I proceed to Albert the Great, who closely follows Pliny. I then include Marbod of Rennes's De Lapidibus, probably the most important lapidary of the Middle Ages. I then proceed to Trevisa's translation of Bartholomaeus Anglicus's De Proprietatibus Rerum and to The Peterborough Lapidary as examples of Middle English texts. And I also include McCulloch's commentary on the pearl since it is a useful brief overview. " Shoaf
