DESCRIPTION:
very nice This is a very handy 2 commentaries in one. Both these medieval commentators provide some very good insights. Despite Thietland's misguided views of the end of the world, he is a very good commentator otherwise. Haimo is a well rounded commentator that needs no caution when reading him.

Apocalyptic speculation, in one form or another, is as persistent at the turn of this millennium as it was at the last. The commentaries of Haimo of Auxerre and Thietland of Einsiedeln offer glimpses of two links in the unbroken chain of the apocalyptic tradition.
