The warp and weft of political and social relationships among the
medieval elite were formed by marriages made between royal
families. Ties of Kinship establishes a new standard for tracking
the dynastic marriages of the ruling family of Rus-the descendants
of Volodimer (Volodimerovici). Utilizing a modern scholarly
approach and a broad range of primary sources from inside and
outside Rus, Christian Raffensperger has created a fully realized
picture of the Volodimerovici from the tenth through the twelfth
centuries and the first comprehensive, scholarly treatment of the
subject in English. Alongside more than twenty-two genealogical
charts with accompanying bibliographic information, this work
presents an analysis of the Volodimerovici dynastic marriages with
modern interpretations and historical contextualization that
highlights the importance of Rus in a medieval European framework.
This study will be used by Slavists, Byzantinists, and West
European medievalists as the new baseline for research on the
Volodimerovici and their complex web of relationships with the
world beyond.
