Collecting sixteen thought-provoking new essays by leading
medievalists, this volume celebrates the work of the late Rees
Davies. Reflecting Davies' interest in identities, political
culture and the workings of power in medieval Britain, the essays
range across ten centuries, looking at a variety of key topics.
Issues explored range from the historical representations of
peoples and the changing patterns of power and authority, to the
notions of 'core' and 'periphery' and the relationship between
local conditions and international movements. The political impact
of words and ideas, and the parallels between developments in Wales
and those elsewhere in Britain, Ireland and Europe are also
discussed. Appreciations of Rees Davies, a bibliography of his
works, and Davies' own farewell speech to the History Faculty at
the University of Oxford complete this outstanding tribute to a
much-missed scholar.
