Edward Augustus Freeman (1823 1892) was Regius Professor of Modern
History at Oxford, and one of the pre-eminent historians of his
generation. Politics was a constant interest for Freeman, who was
also a regular contributor to the Saturday Review. While he wrote
on a variety of historical topics, from ancient Greece to the
German Federation, and had a great interest in architecture, this
six-volume work, published between 1867 and 1879, was his magnum
opus. Freeman reconsiders how the history of the Conquest is
understood and examines its causes and results. Volume 4, dedicated
to the reign of William (1066 1087), describes his rule, examining
it in micro-periods in terms of the political and religious aspects
of the conquest of England. William's relationships with his
foreign and domestic neighbours are analysed and the realm's
stability during this time is assessed.
