It has a strong focus on gold: subjects include sixth-century German burials containing sumptuous jewellery and bands brocaded with gold; the textual evidence for recycling such gold borders and bands in the later Anglo-Saxon period; and a semantic classification of words relating to gold in multi-lingual medieval Britain. It also rescues significant archaeological textiles from obscurity: there is a discussion of early medieval headdresses from The Netherlands, and an examination of a fifteenth-century Italian cushion, an early example of piecework. Finally, uses of dress and textiles in literature are explored in a survey of the Welsh \u003ci\u003eMabinogion\u003c\/i\u003e and Jean Renart's \u003ci\u003eRoman de la Rose\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Robin Netherton is a professional editor and a researcher\/lecturer on the interpretationof medieval European dress; Gale R.
