Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This volume is the first to study the phenomenon of early medieval militarisation from a wide geographic and disciplinary perspective. It explores the impact of an enhanced role attributed to warfare and the military as characteristic features of a European world in the process of becoming medieval. 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.

Paperback. Condition: New. 1st. This is the first volume to attempt a comprehensive overview of the evolution of the 'Arian' churches in the Roman world of Late Antiquity and their political importance in the late Roman kingdoms of the 5th-6th centuries, ruled by barbarian warrior elites. Bringing together researchers from the disciplines of theology, history and archaeology, and providing an extensive bibliography, it constitutes a breakthrough in a field largely neglected in historical studies. A polemical term coined by the Orthodox Church (the side that prevailed in the Trinitarian disputes of the 4th century C.E.) for its opponents in theology as well as in ecclesiastical politics, Arianism has often been seen as too complicated to understand outside the group of theological specialists dealing with it and has therefore sometimes been ignored in historical studies. The studies here offer an introduction to the subject, grounded in the historical context, then examine the adoption of Arian Christianity among the Gothic contingents of the Roman army, and its subsequent diffusion in the barbarian kingdoms of the late Roman world.…

Condition: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Die in drei Handschriften überlieferte Vita Meinwerci ist in vielerlei Hinsicht einzigartig. In diesem Werk werden die Grenzen des mittelalterlichen Vitengenres weit überschritten. Der Text erweist sich als eine geschickte Zusammensetzung aus verschiedenen Elementen: Er vereint Biographisches und Historiographisches, zeigt Charakterzüge eines Erbauungsbuches, dient zudem in gewisser Weise auch als ein Güterverzeichnis der Paderborner Kirche sowie als Gründungsbericht des Benediktinerklosters St. Peter und Paul, genannt Abdinghof. Über ihre unbestrittene Bedeutung für die Stadtgeschichte Paderborns hinaus lassen sich aus der in der zweiten Hälfte des 12. Jahrhunderts geschriebenen Vita Meinwerci auch Kenntnisse für die Geschichte des mittelalterlichen Reiches gewinnen. Der Band stellt die erste zweisprachige Ausgabe dieses Textes zur Verfügung.…
