Vagabond Verse: Secular Latin Poems of the Middle Ages

Detroit: Wayne State University Press, 1966. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine/Fine. Full red cloth boards under white illustrated dust jacket, 307 pp. Slightly askew, Near fine/Fine.I almost didn’t include this one in our hobo catalog, but the flap convinced me that these vagabonds are part of the tradition of some of the positive stereotypes of hobos: “They wrote their sprightly verse...in a spirit of restlessness but good-natured protest against the existing order. They represent the most uninhibited, devil-may-care stratum of their society.”
