Book excerpt: "The subject of this book is the history of England between 1042 and 1189. Its object is to display the evidence for that history, and to indicate the main texts on which must be based our knowledge of English development at that time. The general purpose of this volume thus calls for no comment, nor even (as may be hoped) for any justification. But the particular delimitation of the period with which it deals may none the less demand an explanation. The isolation of any historical epoch must always, to some extent, mask the essential flux in human affairs, and since all periods are ages of transition, to set up barriers between them can hardly fail, in one sense, to be misleading. Nevertheless, expediency demands the device, and it is not solely for reasons of convenience that it may, with proper qualifications, be defended. To say, for example, that a break in English growth occurred either in 1042 or 1189 would be manifestly untrue, but on the other hand it would be reasonable to assert that between these dates there took place changes in English society, and in English politics, so fundamental as to warrant their separate consideration. The period derives its unity from the working out of a single complex process. During the reign of Edward the Confessor there were posed those problems whose resolution entailed the Norman Conquest. In the reigns of William I and Henry I that Conquest was successfully concluded. With Henry II there were brought to completion many of the consequential developments which the Norman Conquest involved. Indeed, so notable was this transition and so spectacular were the events which brought it about that there is even a danger of forgetting the thread of continuity linking the England of Edward the Confessor with the England of Henry II. English history did not begin in 1066. Nor in any sense did it then end."--Introduction.

Book Synopsis The Murder of William of Norwich by : E. M. Rose
Download or read book The Murder of William of Norwich written by E. M. Rose and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1144, the mutilated body of William of Norwich, a young apprentice leatherworker, was found abandoned outside the city's walls. The boy bore disturbing signs of torture, and a story spread that it was a ritual murder, performed by Jews in imitation of the Crucifixion as a mockery of Christianity. The outline of William's tale eventually gained currency far beyond Norwich, and the idea that Jews engaged in ritual murder became firmly rooted in the European imagination. E.M. Rose's engaging book delves into the story of William's murder and the notorious trial that followed to uncover the origin of the ritual murder accusation - known as the "blood libel" - in western Europe in the Middle Ages. Focusing on the specific historical context - 12th-century ecclesiastical politics, the position of Jews in England, the Second Crusade, and the cult of saints - and suspensefully unraveling the facts of the case, Rose makes a powerful argument for why the Norwich Jews (and particularly one Jewish banker) were accused of killing the youth, and how the malevolent blood libel accusation managed to take hold. She also considers four "copycat" cases, in which Jews were similarly blamed for the death of young Christians, and traces the adaptations of the story over time. In the centuries after its appearance, the ritual murder accusation provoked instances of torture, death and expulsion of thousands of Jews and the extermination of hundreds of communities. Although no charge of ritual murder has withstood historical scrutiny, the concept of the blood libel is so emotionally charged and deeply rooted in cultural memory that it endures even today. Rose's groundbreaking work, driven by fascinating characters, a gripping narrative, and impressive scholarship, provides clear answers as to why the blood libel emerged when it did and how it was able to gain such widespread acceptance, laying the foundations for enduring antisemitic myths that continue to present.
