The Lordship of the Isles
ISBN: 9789004279469 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In The Lordship of the Isles, twelve specialists offer new insights on the rise and fall of the MacDonalds of Islay and the greatest Gaelic lordship of later medieval Scotland.

It delivers a compelling account of a land and...

Domination and Lordship: Scotland, 1070-1230
ISBN: 9780748614967 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume centres upon the era conventionally labelled the 'Making of the kingdom', or the 'Anglo-Norman' era in Scottish history. It seeks a balance between traditional historiographical concentration on the 'feudalisation' of Scottish society as part of the wholesale importation of alien cultural traditions by a 'modernising' monarchy and more recent emphasis on the continuing vitality and centrality of Gaelic culture and traditions within the twelfth- and early thirteenth-century kingdom.
Part I explores the transition from the Gaelic kingship of Alba into the hybridised medieval... This volume centres upon the era conventionally labelled the 'Making of the kingdom', or the 'Anglo-Norman' era in Scottish history. It seeks a balanc...

Collecting, Curating, and Researching Writers' Libraries: A Handbook
ISBN: 9781442234970 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Academic collection practices in recent years have extended to the private libraries of notable individual authors. As a consequence, book historians have become more interested in the study of provenance of the contents of these libraries, while literary scholars have devoted more attention to authorial annotations. At the same time, the Internet has encouraged both scholarly and hobbyist reconstructions of private libraries (see, for example, the "Legacy Libraries" on Librarything.com). Although there are many bibliographies and reconstructions of the libraries of authors, this is the first...

Viking Empires
ISBN: 9780521829922 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 462 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.
