This book ranges all over the medieval world, using a dazzling array of sources, high and low, serious and humourous, literary, philosophical, artistic, even biblical exegesis, to uncover medieval attitutdes to the fart. This leads to much wider discussion on the idea of waste in the Middle Ages, and on words and word-play, particularly the idea that words themselves can be waste - the babble of biblical Babel itself a kind of fart. Along the way we meet such charming characters as Roland the Farter who "performed" annually for Henry II of England.
