Marco Polo's Devisement du monde provided manuscript illuminators with a chance to create innovative images that are not found elsewhere in medieval iconography. For example, the illustrators of MS Fr. 2810 now in the Bibliothèque national de France references Marco Polo's story of the three Magi receiving a gift of fire from the infant Christ and then returning to their homeland in Persia and teaching the people there to worship fire. This story is one that Polo would have encountered during his travels and contradicts the stories told about the Magi in Western Europe. MS Fr. 2810 is the only medieval manuscript to contain this reference.[3]

ASSIGNMENT: Using the rest of our time today, create a new sandbox. Practice creating citations for a book, a book chapter, an article, and a website. Bonus points on this week's Wikipedia assignment for finding a book with the most random title (judged by which one makes me laugh the most). When you're done, send me an email with the link to the sandbox.
