Abstract
When a well-illustrated book on imaginary animals, monsters, and other wondrous beings reappears in paperback nine years later after its first publication, then it must have achieved a considerable success on the book market. Medievalists might be interested in it as well because medieval art (manuscript illustrations, sculptures) and also literature are filled with references to such hybrid beings. We would hence naturally want to learn what Sax might have found out in this extensive study on the imaginary, a topic that has gained considerable attention in recent years (see the contributions to Imagination and Fantasy in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Times: Projections, Dreams, Monsters, and Illusions, ed. Albrecht Classen, 2020).
