The Carolingians and the Written Word
ISBN: 9780521315654 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This pioneering book studies the function and status of the written word in Carolingian society in France and Germany in the eighth and ninth centuries. It demonstrates that literacy was by no means confined to a clerical elite, but was dispersed in lay society and used for government and administration, as well as for ordinary legal transactions among the peoples of the Frankish kingdom. While employing a huge range of primary material, the author does not confine herself to a functional analysis of the written word in Carolingian northern Europe but goes on to assess the consequences and...

ISBN: 9780521827171 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study reveals the remarkable quantity of varied forms and new types of history written in the Frankish realms of Western Europe during the eighth and ninth centuries.

Carolingian Culture: Emulation and Innovation
ISBN: 9780521405867 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume of specially-commissioned essays takes as its theme the legacy of Rome in Carolingian culture in eighth- and ninth-century Europe. No such comprehensive survey of this kind exists in any language. The book is the more unusual by departing from the customary stress on the concept of renewal to emphasize the enormous creativity and inventiveness of the Franks. Carolingian culture provided the bedrock for the subsequent development of medieval European culture, and this is demonstrated amply by essays that are planned as a series of introductions to the study of each topic.

Perceptions of the Past in the Early Middle Ages
ISBN: 9780268035006 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Historical writing of the early middle ages tends to be regarded as little more than a possible source of facts, but Rosamond McKitterick establishes that early medieval historians conveyed in their texts a sophisticated set of multiple perceptions of the past. In these essays, McKitterick focuses on the Frankish realms in the eight and ninth centuries and examines different methods and genres of historical writing in relation to the perceptions of time and chronology. She claims that there is an extraordinary concentration of new text production and older text reproduction in this period...

The Early Middle Ages: Europe 400-1000
ISBN: 9780198731726 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Early Middle Ages (400-1000) was one of the most dynamic and crucial periods in the formation of Europe. It covers the transition from the relatively diverse world of Roman Empire in late antiquity to the disparate world of early medieval Europe--where local differences assumed far greater significance, but where the institution of Latin Christianity lent coherence to the successor states. In this book, McKitterick and five other leading historians have collaborated closely to produce a set of thematic interpretations covering politics, society, economy, culture, religion, and Europe and...

Codex Epistolaris Carolinus: Letters from the Popes to the Frankish Rulers, 739-791
ISBN: 9781802078251 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 546 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Codex epistolaris Carolinus preserves ninety-nine letters, dated between 739 and 791 and sent by the popes to the Frankish king Charlemagne and his predecessors. The compilation was commissioned by Charlemagne in 791, but the sole surviving medieval manuscript of the letters was made at Cologne in the later ninth century and is now in Vienna (Österreichische Nationalbibliothek Cod. 449). The headings or lemmata provided for each letter by the Frankish compilers in 791 and faithfully preserved in the codex, add a distinctive Frankish commentary on events in Rome and Italy in the second...

The Early Humiliati
ISBN: 9780521027144 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book is the first major study in English of a group of late twelfth-century religious enthusiasts, the early Humiliati, who were condemned by the Church as heretics in 1184 but--in a remarkable transition--were reconciled seventeen years later and went on to establish a highly successful religious order in northern Italy. Using a wide range of sources, the nature of the early movement and its processes of institutional development are reconstructed. The book also includes a Bullarium Humiliatorum, a list of papal and episcopal letters and privileges.

The Making of Gratian's Decretum
ISBN: 9780521632645 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book offers new perspectives on the legal and intellectual developments of the twelfth century. Gratian's collection of church law, the Decretum, was a key text in these developments and remained a fundamental work throughout and beyond the Middle Ages. Until now, the many mysteries surrounding the creation of the Decretum have remained unsolved. Professor Winroth has now discovered the original version of the Decretum in a version about half as long as the final text, and that invites a reconsideration of the resurgence of law in the twelfth century.
