Bøger af Catherine Karkov

Initially concerned exclusively with death and burial, this volume grew to encompass the role of the living and the towns they inhabit. The ten papers take an informal, relaxed tone, seeking to inspire discussion rather than provide a definitive summary. John Bradley's candid and witty "Urbanization in Early Medieval Ireland" stands out especially.

Patrick Wormald was a brilliant interpreter of the Early Middle Ages. This book presents a collection of studies devoted to the key themes that dominated his work: kingship; law and society; ethnic, religious, national and linguistic identities; and, the power of images, pictorial or poetic, in shaping political and religious institutions.
