Hello everybody!
I'd like to know if a book exists about how the rich literary and scientific production of the Ancient Time passed through the Middle-Ages. Whiches authors were known and read in the monasteries, which were known but not studied (I know this was the case of Herodotus), and why, whiches were lost to Western Europe but not to Byzantines, and whiches were definitely lost during this period and why, as far at can be said.
Short from a book, do you know any other resources (articles, website?) on the subject?
Thanks
