Domenic Leo, Ph.D. (2005) in Art History, New York University, Institute of Fine Arts, is currently Adjunct Professor at Duquesne University,Aliquippa, Pennsylvania. He is involved in multiple publications exploring illuminated manuscripts of French poet-composer Guillaume de Machaut's poetry and music.
“Leo provides a wealth of information that will be useful to many working on fourteenth- and fifteenth-century French manuscript production, on the Roman d’ Alexandre tradition, or on marginalia. The manuscript catalogue and concordances are particularly impressive, as is the bibliography, all of which provide an excellent foundation for future research.”Mark Cruse, Arizona State University. In: Speculum, Vol. 89, No. 3 (July 2014), pp. 795-796. “the book offers a treasure of interesting research material, plenty of photographs from the illustrative tradition, and a useful index of marginalia in the Glazier manuscript; it will be crucial for all future research on the Peacock manuscripts.”Martine Meuwese, Utrecht University. In: Studies in Iconography, Vol. 36 (2015), p. 210-213. "consists of an extremely detailed study of a single MS, Morgan Library MS G.24, which contains Jacques de Longuyon’s Voeux du paon (1312–13) as well as an incomplete copy of Jean le Court’s Restor du paon (before 1338). While the choice of this MS was dictated by availability, L.’s penetrating analysis of the MS and its creation shows how much an art-historical approach complements philology by casting a different light on the materiality of the text and its images, especially as L. takes this opportunity to delve into the wider problem of the illustration and diffusion of the whole Peacock cycle, which also includes a third text, Jean de Le Mote’s Parfait du paon. After the conclusion in chapter 7, ch. 8 and 9 along with five appendices provide a wealth of useful details about the MSS, their miniatures and marginalia, in particular the illustrated catalogue of all the MSS of the ‘Peacock Cycle’."Laurent Brun, Université d’Ottawa.
