A collaborative history from leading scholars, covering the key debates and issues Surveys the building blocks of political society, and considers whether there were fundamental differences across Britain and Ireland Considers potential factors for change, including the economy, Christianisation, and the Vikings
This collection of 27 original essays by leading scholars covers the key debates and issues involved in writing a history of Britain in the early middle ages. Moving away from the Anglo-centrism which has been the norm for accounts of the period, the essays in this Companion take an inclusive approach to the history of the British Isles to overcome artificial distinctions of national boundaries and identify new units of comparative historical analysis. The essays are written in a clear, provocative and lively manner and, taken as a whole, they provide a sophisticated and authoritative overview of the scholarship that has shaped our current understanding of Early Medieval British History.
