John Blair: Building Anglo-Saxon England, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"John Blair has a reputation for being one of the most original historians of Anglo-Saxon England, and he amply merits that with this amazing new book. This deft mixture of archaeology, history, and place-name studies shows us how Anglo-Saxon villages worked, in ways that have never been attempted before. Everyone in the future will have to start with this pathbreaking work."--Chris Wickham, author of Medieval Europe
"A magisterial work. Blair provides a compelling, integrated survey of Anglo-Saxon settlement, habitation, architecture, landscape design, and urban design. An impressive book of sweeping coverage, Building Anglo-Saxon England will undoubtedly become the standard work in the field."--Richard Gameson, author of The Role of Art in the Late Anglo-Saxon Church
"A book that will undoubtedly shape approaches to early medieval England for many years to come."--Richard Jones, author of The Medieval Natural World
