The Birth of Nobility: Constructing Aristocracy in England and France, 900-1300
ISBN: 9781138146907 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For 300 years separate and mutually uncomprehending English and French historiographies have confused the history of medieval aristocracy. Unpicking the basic assumptions behind both national traditions, this book explains them, reconciles them and offers entirely new ways to take the study of aristocracy forward in both England and France. The Birth of Nobility analyses the enormous international field of publications on the subject of medieval aristocracy, breaking it down into four key debates: noble conduct, noble lineage, noble class and noble power. Each issue is... For 300 years separate and mutually uncomprehending English and French historiographies have confused the history of medieval aristocracy. Unpickin... |

The contributions are divided between those written from media...

ISBN: 9780521149679 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Though England was the emerging super-state in the medieval British Isles, its story is not the only one Britain can offer; there is a wider context of Britain in Europe, and the story of this period is one of how European Latin and French culture and ideals colonised the minds of all the British peoples.

The Image of Aristocracy: In Britain, 1000-1300
ISBN: 9780415755047 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. David Crouch provides a broad definition of aristorcracy by examining the ways aristocrats behaved and lived between 1000 and 1300. He analyses life-style, class and luxurious living in those years. A distinctive feature of the book is that it takes a British, rather than Anglocentric, view - looking at the penetration of Welsh and Scottish society by Anglo-French ideas of aristocracy.

ISBN: 9780415019118 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study of aristocracy in England, Wales and Scotland relates developments in the aristocracies in all three countries from 1000-1300.

The Acts and Letters of the Marshal Family
ISBN: 9781107130036 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 538 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This collection represents the surviving output of the clerks of the men and women of the most powerful magnate dynasty in England, Wales and Ireland in the thirteenth century. Its greatness was short-lived, but as a result of the Marshals' spread of interests and marriage alliances the charters and letters edited here embrace a remarkable diversity of lordships and societies. That fact and the central place the two Earls William Marshal held at the court of the young Henry III between 1216 and 1231, playing a decisive role in the establishment of Magna Carta, give this collection a unique...

ISBN: 9781138249776 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The idea of 'flirting' with space is central to this book. Space is conceptualised as being in constant flux as we make our way through various contexts in our daily lives, and is considered in relation to encounters with complexities and flows of material culture. This book focuses on journeys, which are perceived as dynamic processes of contemporary life and its spaces, and how creativity happens in the inter-relations of space and journeys encourage creativity. Unravelled through a range of empirical case studies of journeys through and encountered with space, this book builds new critical...
