I read Maria's book in the early stages of preparing mine, so the overlap is minimal. My focus is on the English tradition, and treats the European tradition only at the points where it demonstrably impacted the English (often, of course!). Maria's book has a very European focus. Also, I aimed to be as comprehensive as possible in the chronological survey. Hopefully it will prove very useful for general reading as well as a scholarly resource; I aimed for a good blend of registers and references high and "low"! I also aimed not to simply reproduce images that had already been seen often in Bluebeard sources. Thanks again for posting!
