Book Synopsis The European Countryside during the Migration Period by : Irene Bavuso
Download or read book The European Countryside during the Migration Period written by Irene Bavuso and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-12-31 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on late antique and early medieval migrations has long acknowledged the importance of interdisciplinarity. The field is constantly nourished by new archaeological discoveries that allow for increasingly refined pictures of socio-economic development. Yet the perspectives adopted by historians and archaeologists are frequently different, and so are their conclusions. Diverging views exist in respect to varying geographical areas and scholarly traditions too. This volume brings together history and archaeology to address the impact of the inflow and outflow of migrations on the rural landscape, the creation of new settlement patterns, and the role of migrations and mobility in transforming society and economy. Such themes are often investigated under a regional or macro-regional viewpoint, resulting in too fragmented an understanding of a widespread phenomenon. Spanning Eastern and Western Europe, the book takes steps toward an integrated picture of territories normally investigated as separate entities, and critically establishes grounds for new comparisons and models on late antique and early medieval transformations.
Book Synopsis Perceiving War and the Military in Early Christian Gaul (ca. 400–700 A.D.) by : Laury Sarti
Download or read book Perceiving War and the Military in Early Christian Gaul (ca. 400–700 A.D.) written by Laury Sarti and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-09-12 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The passage from Antiquity to the Middle Ages has been largely studied in the light of the thesis of a gradual transformation, which is in contradiction of the previous assumption of an abrupt break due to war and general calamity. Perceiving War and the Military reassesses this historical period of transition by an investigation of the contemporary world of thought that examines the impact and significance of a permanently increasing contact with warfare and armed violence. Her studies confirm the assumption of a gradual shift, but they most of all show that the irrevocable end of the Roman Peace was a crucial factor in the late Roman world becoming gradually “medieval”.

Book excerpt: Von der Spatantike zum fruhen Mittelalter - das Thema des Bandes betrifft ein klassisches "Problem historischer Periodenbildung". Diskutiert wurde es schon oft und mit ganz unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen, die sich aufgrund bestimmter ideologischer oder nationalistischer Pradispositionen oder ganz spezifischer Fokussierung ergaben. Es geht bei dem Themenkreis also nicht zuletzt um das Problem der Theoriebildung und -kritik. Ziel der Tagung 2007 war es, eine Bilanz der gerade in jungster Zeit wiederbelebten Forschung uber diesen vielschichtigen Transformationsprozess zu bieten - aus historischer, rechtshistorischer, sprachwissenschaftlicher und archaologischer Perspektive.

Book Synopsis Bishops and the Politics of Patronage in Merovingian Gaul by : Gregory I. Halfond
Download or read book Bishops and the Politics of Patronage in Merovingian Gaul written by Gregory I. Halfond and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-15 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the dissolution of the Western Roman Empire, local Christian leaders were confronted with the problem of how to conceptualize and administer their regional churches. As Gregory Halfond shows, the bishops of post-Roman Gaul oversaw a transformation in the relationship between church and state. He shows that by constituting themselves as a corporate body, the Gallic episcopate was able to wield significant political influence on local, regional, and kingdom-wide scales. Gallo-Frankish bishops were conscious of their corporate membership in an exclusive order, the rights and responsibilities of which were consistently being redefined and subsequently expressed through liturgy, dress, physical space, preaching, and association with cults of sanctity. But as Halfond demonstrates, individual bishops, motivated by the promise of royal patronage to provide various forms of service to the court, often struggled, sometimes unsuccessfully, to balance their competing loyalties. However, even the resulting conflicts between individual bishops did not, he shows, fundamentally undermine the Gallo-Frankish episcopate's corporate identity or integrity. Ultimately, Halfond provides a far more subtle and sophisticated understanding of church-state relations across the early medieval period.
Book Synopsis Bishops under Threat by : Sabine Panzram
Download or read book Bishops under Threat written by Sabine Panzram and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-03-20 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late antique and the early medieval periods witnessed the flourishing of bishops in the West as the main articulators of social life. This influential position exposed them to several threats, both political and religious. Researchers have generally addressed violence, rebellions or conflicts to study the dynamics related to secular powers during these periods. They haven’t paid similar attention, however, to those analogous contexts that had bishops as protagonists. This book proposes an approach to bishops as threatened subjects in the late antique and early medieval West. In particular, the volume pursues three main goals. Firstly, it aims to identify the different types of threats that bishops had to deal with. Then it sets out to frame these situations of adversity in their own contexts. Finally, it will address the episcopal strategies deployed to deal with such contexts of adversity. In sum, we aim to underline the impact that these contexts had as a dynamiting factor of episcopal action. Thus the episcopal threats may become a useful approach to study the bishops’ relationships with other agents of power, the motivations behind their actions and – last but not least – for understanding the episcopal rising power
Download or read book Knowledge of the Pragmatici written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge of the pragmatici sheds new light on pragmatic normative literature (mainly from the religious sphere), a genre crucial for the formation of normative orders in early modern Ibero-America. Long underrated by legal historical scholarship, these media – manuals for confessors, catechisms, and moral theological literature – selected and localised normative knowledge for the colonial worlds and thus shaped the language of normativity. The eleven chapters of this book explore the circulation and the uses of pragmatic normative texts in the Iberian peninsula, in New Spain, Peru, New Granada and Brazil. The book reveals the functions and intellectual achievements of pragmatic literature, which condensed normative knowledge, drawing on medieval scholarly practices of ‘epitomisation’, and links the genre with early modern legal culture.

Meyer, Osvaldo Moutin, and David Rex Galindo.
Book Synopsis Population Dynamics in Prehistory and Early History by : Elke Kaiser
Download or read book Population Dynamics in Prehistory and Early History written by Elke Kaiser and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-07-04 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migrations and population dynamics are considered very problematic topics in the fields of ancient studies. Recent scholarship in (pre)historical population has generated new impulses by using scientific approaches using radiogenic and stable isotopes, and palaeogenetics, as well as computer simulation. As a result, the state of migration research has undergone rapid change. Several research groups presented papers at aconference held in Berlin in 2010, addressing specific historical aspects of population dynamics and migration, with no chronological or geographical restrictions, in the light of cutting-edge bio-archaeological research. This volume, divided into three larger thematic sections (isotope analysis, population genetics, and modelling and computer simulation), presents experiences and insights about methodological approaches, research results and prospects for future research in this area in a varied collection of papers. Scholars from widely diverse scientific disciplines present their approaches, findings and interpretations to an audience far broader than the circles of the individual disciplines.

Book Synopsis The Ransom of the Soul by : Peter Brown
Download or read book The Ransom of the Soul written by Peter Brown and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Brown explores a revolutionary shift in thinking about the fate of the soul between 250 and 650 CE, showing how personal wealth in the pursuit of redemption led Church doctrine concerning the afterlife to evolve from speculation to firm reality. This new relationship to money set the stage for the Church's domination of medieval society.
Book Synopsis Local, regional and ethnic identities in early medieval cemeteries in Bavaria (Premio Ottone d'Assia e Riccardo Francovich 2008) by : Susanne Hakenbeck
Download or read book Local, regional and ethnic identities in early medieval cemeteries in Bavaria (Premio Ottone d'Assia e Riccardo Francovich 2008) written by Susanne Hakenbeck and published by All’Insegna del Giglio. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tema conduttore dell’opera è lo studio dell’etnicità altomedievale condotto attraverso l’analisi di un gruppo di cimiteri nella pianura alluvionale di Monaco di Baviera e l’esame dello sviluppo della pratica funeraria in un periodo che va dal V al VII secolo d.C. Iniziate come un atto ibrido di pratiche tardo-romane e barbariche, quando nel secolo successivo, le comunità politiche tribali si consolidarono, le modalità di sepoltura presero le distanze dalle loro origini romane divenendo apertamente barbare. Lo studio delle sepolture diviene per l’A. motivo per una più ampia riflessione sul concetto di identità e sui rapporti fra cultura materiale ed etnia. Contiene il riassunto del volume in italiano.
Book Synopsis The Roman West, AD 200–500 by : Simon Esmonde Cleary
Download or read book The Roman West, AD 200–500 written by Simon Esmonde Cleary and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and analyses the development of the Roman West from Gibraltar to the Rhine, using primarily the extensive body of published archaeological evidence rather than the textual evidence underlying most other studies. It situates this development within a longer-term process of change, proposing the later second century rather than the 'third-century crisis' as the major turning-point, although the latter had longer-term consequences owing to the rise in importance of military identities. Elsewhere, more 'traditional' forms of settlement and display were sustained, to which was added the vocabulary of Christianity. The longer-term rhythms are also central to assessing the evidence for such aspects as rural settlement and patterns of economic interaction. The collapse of Roman imperial authority emphasised trends such as militarisation and regionalisation along with economic and cultural disintegration. Indicators of 'barbarian/Germanic' presence are reassessed within such contexts and the traditional interpretations questioned and alternatives proposed.
Book Synopsis Migration Histories of the Medieval Afroeurasian Transition Zone by :
Download or read book Migration Histories of the Medieval Afroeurasian Transition Zone written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-05-06 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transition zone between Africa, Asia and Europe was the most important intersection of human mobility in the medieval period. The present volume for the first time systematically covers migration histories of the regions between the Mediterranean and Central Asia and between Eastern Europe and the Indian Ocean in the centuries from Late Antiquity up to the early modern era. Within this framework, specialists from Byzantine, Islamic, Medieval and African history provide detailed analyses of specific regions and groups of migrants, both elites and non-elites as well as voluntary and involuntary. Thereby, also current debates of migration studies are enriched with a new dimension of deep historical time.

Book Synopsis Early medieval militarisation by : Ellora Bennett
Download or read book Early medieval militarisation written by Ellora Bennett and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The societies of ancient Europe underwent a continual process of militarisation, and this would come to be a defining characteristic of the early Middle Ages. The process was neither linear nor mono-causal, but it affected society as a whole, encompassing features like the lack of demarcation between the military and civil spheres of the population, the significance attributed to weapons beyond their military function and the wide recognition of martial values. Early medieval militarisation assembles twenty studies that use both written and archaeological evidence to explore the phenomenon of militarisation and its impact on the development of the societies of early medieval Europe. The interdisciplinary investigations break new ground and will be essential reading for scholars and students of related fields, as well as non-specialists with an interest in early medieval history.
