Download or read book Brutus of Troy written by Anthony Adolph and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “fascinating [and] unique exploration” of the mythological founder of Britain, divine ancestor of King Arthur, and symbol of British identity (Your Family History). Believed to be a great-great-great grandson of the Greek goddess Aphrodite, Brutus of Troy led a voyage from Greece to Britain. Landing at Totnes in Devon, it is said that Brutus overthrew the giants who lived there, laid the foundations of Oxford University and London, and sired a line of kings that includes King Arthur and the ancestors of the present Royal Family. Genealogist Anthony Adolph traces the legend of Brutus of Troy from the Roman times onwards, looking at his popularity, his mentions in fiction, and his place in mythology of some of London’s landmarks. Brutus’ story played a crucial role in royal propaganda and foreign policy. His tale also inspired poets and playwrights including Shakespeare, Spenser, Milton, Pope, Wordworth, Dickens, and Blake. Brutus of Troy delves into how the myth shaped Britain’s identity and gave the nation a place in Classical mythologies and the Bible.

Book Synopsis The Origins of the Anglo-Saxons by : Jean Manco
Download or read book The Origins of the Anglo-Saxons written by Jean Manco and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are the English? Their language and culture have had an impact on the modern world out of all proportion to the size of their homeland. But what do we really understand about their ancestry? Traditionally they have been seen as the descendants of those Germanic peoples who poured into Britain after the Roman legions departed, today known as the Anglo-Saxons. Alternative interpretations have questioned this picture, or suggested complications. At last, the astonishing progress made in extracting and analysing ancient DNA means that theories can be tested empirically, shedding new light on the movement and migrations of peoples in the past. Skillfully and accessibly blending together results from this cutting-edge DNA technology with new research from archaeology and linguistics, Jean Manco reveals a long and adventurous journey before a word of English was spoken. Going beyond a narrow focus on the Anglo-Saxon period, she probes into the deep origins of the Germani and their kin, and extends the story to the language of Shakespeare, taken to the first British colony in America. The result is an exciting new history of the English people, and a ground-breaking analysis of their development.
Download or read book Ancestors written by Alice Roberts and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-05-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extraordinary exploration of the ancestry of Britain through seven burial sites. By using new advances in genetics and taking us through important archaeological discoveries, Professor Alice Roberts helps us better understand life today. ‘This is a terrific, timely and transporting book - taking us heart, body and mind beyond history, to the fascinating truth of the prehistoric past and the present’ Bettany Hughes We often think of Britain springing from nowhere with the arrival of the Romans. But in Ancestors, pre-eminent archaeologist, broadcaster and academic Professor Alice Roberts explores what we can learn about the very earliest Britons, from burial sites and by using new technology to analyse ancient DNA. Told through seven fascinating burial sites, this groundbreaking prehistory of Britain teaches us more about ourselves and our history: how people came and went and how we came to be on this island. It explores forgotten journeys and memories of migrations long ago, written into genes and preserved in the ground for thousands of years. This is a book about belonging: about walking in ancient places, in the footsteps of the ancestors. It explores our interconnected global ancestry, and the human experience that binds us all together. It’s about reaching back in time, to find ourselves, and our place in the world. PRE-ORDER CRYPT, THE FINAL BOOK IN ALICE ROBERTS' BRILLIANT TRILOGY – OUT FEBRUARY 2024.

Book Synopsis In Search of Scottish Ancestry by : Gerald Kenneth Savery Hamilton-Edwards
Download or read book In Search of Scottish Ancestry written by Gerald Kenneth Savery Hamilton-Edwards and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This has been the standard guide for Scottish family historians since its first publication, in 1972, and has enjoyed enormous success throughout the English-speaking (and Scots-populated) world. After a corrected reprint in 1979, it now appears in an enlarged format in a new edition that takes account of the latest information and more than a decade of readers' comments. It takes the reader from the time when he is first led by curiosity to make enquiries of aged aunts and uncles to the time when he is far back in the centuries, immersed in an absorbing and often lifetime hobby. For people of Scots descent, whether still at home in Scotland or abroad, in the rest of the British Isles or dominions or in the U.S.A., this is the most useful, the most readable and the most comprehensive guide to the methods and the peculiar problems (and fortunate advantages) of the seeker of Scottish ancestry or family history. The book is also invaluable to historians, biographers, sociologists and all others who make use of Scottish archives. Book jacket.
