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.

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.

Unravelled through a range of empirical case studies of journeys through and encountered with space, this book builds new critical...
