for nearly 1000 years the Spanish bishop's encyclopedia preserved
for medieval western Europe the modes of thought + the factual
knowledge of the ancient world of which it is a primary source.
More than a 1000 manuscripts have survived, + its early
appearance in print shows its undiminished appeal down to the
17th C. Later encyclopedias such as the Catholicon derived much of
their material from Isidore. This is the 1st book to contain a
printed map or diagram of the whole world.
