Gervase wrote the Otia Imperialia in the early thirteenth century for his patron, the Holy Roman Emperor Otto IV.  It presents an encyclopedic melange of cosmographical, historical, and geographical information and a wealth of learned and original accounts of folklore and popular belief.  It also contains advice to Otto and pertinent remarks on the\n\u003cbr\u003erelationship between Empire and Papacy, together with scientific and theological speculation.  The edition also includes Gervase's recently discovered Commentary on the Lord's Prayer.  Gervase was a\n\u003cbr\u003evoracious and eclectic reader; his many borrowings are identified in this fully annotated edition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44157015621870,"sku":"9780198202882","price":812.76,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780198202882.jpg?v=1706222185","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/gervase-of-tilbury-otia-imperialia","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
