The Well-Laden Ship: Medieval Proverbs

This week, Danièle and Peter Konieczny share profound – and profoundly odd – medieval proverbs from one of their favourite books of the Middle Ages: The Well-Laden Ship.

The Well-Laden Ship, by Egbert of Liège, was translated by Robert Gary Babcock as part of the Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library. You can get details about the book from the publisher or buy it through Amazon.com
