The papers published here are developed from presentations made at
a Manchester Centre for Anglo-Saxon Studies Conference entitled
'The Anglo-Saxons in their World' held in 2010. An eclectic
collection of studies drawing on Latin, Old English and Old Norse
texts, artefacts and archaeology, papers are groups into five
themed sections: 'Chosen people in their place'; 'Life in
Anglo-Saxon England'; 'Beyond the shore'; 'The Mediterranean and
beyond'; and 'The North, The Universe', though other connections
may be found. Two papers focus largely on early archaeology
(Battaglia, Trzaska-Nartowski and Riddler) and King's study is also
of an archaeological find. A majority of papers relate to the
intellectual climate of the early Christian period in England
(Larpi, Higham, Grocock, King, Cesario, Barker and to some extent
Sebo). Several take evidence from later Anglo-Saxon manuscripts
(Scragg, Hill, Frederick, Sebo). Fafinski attempts a chronological
sweep beginning in the Roman period, and Banham from the seventh
century to the eleventh.
