At IAS, John Eldevik is working on the so-called “Letter of Prester John,” a popular forgery of the Middle Ages that provides a fascinating window onto medieval attitudes towards history, geography, and theology, particularly when viewed in the context of other works with which it circulated in contemporary manuscripts.
