Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library

The Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library (est. 2010) is a series of books published by Harvard University Press in collaboration with the Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection. It presents editions of texts originally written in medieval Latin, Byzantine Greek, Old English, and the languages of the medieval Iberian Peninsula, with facing-page translations into modern English. The aim is to make such texts accessible to English-speaking scholars and general readers.
