Cyfrol sy'n ystyried canfyddiad rhyfeddol pobl yr oesoedd canol o'r asyn. Yn greadur cario beichiau ac yn drosiad am ymddygiad dynol, defnyddiwyd nodweddion tybiedig yr asyn - afresymoldeb, gostyngeiddrwydd, ystyfnigrwydd, ymddygiad croesrywiog - i addysgu, difyrru a swyno.

English Description: Introducing the Medieval Ass considers the fascinating ways that medieval people understood the ass, or donkey. A beast of burden and metaphor for human behaviour, medieval authors used the ass's assumed traits - irrationality, humility, stubborness, sexual perversion - to educate, entertain, and enthral.
