Book Synopsis The Norman Conquest by : Hugh M. Thomas
Download or read book The Norman Conquest written by Hugh M. Thomas and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2008 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the successful Norman invasion of England in 1066, this concise and readable book focuses especially on the often dramatic and enduring changes wrought by William the Conqueror and his followers. From the perspective of a modern social historian, Hugh M. Thomas considers the conquest's wide-ranging impact by taking a fresh look at such traditional themes as the influence of battles and great men on history and assessing how far the shift in ruling dynasty and noble elites affected broader aspects of English history. The author sets the stage by describing English society before the Norman Conquest and recounting the dramatic story of the conquest, including the climactic Battle of Hastings. He then traces the influence of the invasion itself and the Normans' political, military, institutional, and legal transformations. Inevitably following on the heels of institutional reform came economic, social, religious, and cultural changes. The results, Thomas convincingly shows, are both complex and surprising. In some areas where one might expect profound influence, such as government institutions, there was little change. In other respects, such as the indirect transformation of the English language, the conquest had profound and lasting effects. With its combination of exciting narrative and clear analysis, this book will capture students interest in a range of courses on medieval and Western history.

Download or read book A Short History of the Norman Conquest of England written by Edward Augustus Freeman and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the 14th October 1066 the fate of England was changed forever. Harold Godwinson lay dead on the battlefield and William, the Duke of Normandy, would soon be crowned King of England. No longer would Anglo-Saxons or Vikings rule England; this was the age of the Normans. Renowned scholar, Edward A. Freeman, gives a fascinating overview of this momentous event in European history. Freeman uncovers the origins of the Norman people and their impact that they made across Europe, from Scandinavia down to Sicily, as well as providing an outline of England prior to 1066 and an account of all the major figures who took part in the conquest. Particularly fascinating is Freeman's analysis of how William asserted his rule after the battle and forced the formerly Anglo-Saxon kingdom to become a Norman one with a new landowning class. This work is essential reading for anyone interested in the medieval period and who wishes to learn more about one of the most important events in English history. Frank Barlow stated that Freeman was extremely well qualified to study and write on the Norman Conquest as he had "a good knowledge of languages, including Anglo-Saxon, and an interest in field archaeology and architecture, with the ability to sketch buildings and their features. Above all, he had tremendous zest." Edward A. Freeman was Regius Professor of Modern History at Oxford whose most famous work was the six volume The History of the Norman Conquest of England. published between 1867 and 1879. This shortened version of that work was published in 1880. He died in 1892.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting and authoritative history of the single most important event in English history: The Norman Conquest. An upstart French duke who sets out to conquer the most powerful and unified kingdom in Christendom. An invasion force on a scale not seen since the days of the Romans. One of the bloodiest and most decisive battles ever fought. This new history explains why the Norman Conquest was the most significant cultural and military episode in English history. Assessing the original evidence at every turn, Marc Morris goes beyond the familiar outline to explain why England was at once so powerful and yet so vulnerable to William the Conqueror’s attack. Morris writes with passion, verve, and scrupulous concern for historical accuracy. This is the definitive account for our times of an extraordinary story, indeed the pivotal moment in the shaping of the English nation.
