"The book was first published as Schatz, Gedächtnis, Wunder. Die Objekte der Kirchen im Mittelalter (Regensburg: Schnell und Steiner, 2015). This German version has more and lengthier footnotes, with extensive quotations and additional bibliography. Readers interested in such in-depth references might consult it together with the present book. The original French text, with reduced footnoes, was published as Trésor, mémoire, merveilles. Les objets des églises au Moyen Âge (Paris: Éditions de l'EHESS, 2016). Anne Madelain, at Éditions de l'EHESS, generously initiated yet another translation of the text. This English version, Treasure, memory, nature, Church objects in the Middle Ages, mirrors the French version (with complementary references to existing English translations of original texts and scientific literature)...For her careful translation, I would like to thank Chloe Morgan ... Julia Oswald, who edited the text beautifully and with great precision."--Acknowledgements.
