Anglo-Norman Studies 23

In chronological and geographical scope this volume ranges fromtenth-century Marchiennes to three castles c.1300 in Co. Carlow via Toulouse in 1159; none the less England in the eleventh and twelfth centuries remains central. Three papers deal with the late Anglo-Saxon earls and their followers as consumers and politicians; three with religious institutions in both charitable and political perspective. Familiar subjects such as English castle keeps theBayeux Tapestry and the New Forest are shown in unfamiliar light. Other papers consider contemporary views of Henry I and Stephen and modern views of Anglo-Saxon slavery.
