A complete translation,

This review is from: Songs of Holy Mary of Alfonso X, the Wise: A Translation of the Cantigas De Santa Maria (Medieval & Renaissance Texts & Studies) (Hardcover)
This book contains English translations of the Cantigas. The original Galician-Portugese verses are not included, nor are the musical notations. There are some line drawings of the illuminations, but no plates of the originals. I am a harp student with an interest in early music. The translations have helped me to interpret the music more effectively. This is helpful, accessible book for academics or students of early music.

Excellent resource for medieval-period enthusiasts,
By
This review is from: Songs of Holy Mary of Alfonso X, the Wise: A Translation of the Cantigas De Santa Maria (Medieval & Renaissance Texts & Studies) (Hardcover)
Kathleen Kulp-Hill's translation provides a doorway into the 13th century world of the Galician-language miracle tales about the Virgin Mary and her faithful followers in the Iberian Peninsula and from around the European world. Professor Kulp-Hill's notes add historical and cultural tidbits of interest. This text is an excellent resource for beginners and advanced scholars with a love for things medieval.
