Anglo-Saxons from the Migration Period to the Eighth Century

A stimulating contribution to the field of Anglo-Saxon studies. MEDIEVAL ARCHAEOLOGY A mind-stretching read. NOTES AND QUERIES The papers contained in this volume, by leading researchers in the field, cover a wide range of social, economic and ideological aspects of the culture of early Anglo-Saxon England, from an inter-disciplinary perspective. The status of 'Anglo-Saxondom' and 'Englishness' as cultural and ethnic categories are a recurrent focus of debate, while other topics include the reconstruction of settlement patterns; social and political structures; farming in medieval England; and the spiritual world of the Anglo-Saxons. As a whole, the contributions offer fascinating insights into key contemporary research questions and projects, and into the character and problems of interdisciplinary approaches.Dr JOHN HINES is Reader in the School of History and Archaeology at the University of Wales, Cardiff.Hines, John is the author of 'Anglo-Saxons from the Migration Period to the Eighth Century', published 2003 under ISBN 9781843830344 and ISBN 1843830345.
