Fruits of the most recent research on the worlds of the eleventh
and twelfth centuries. The contributions in this volume illuminate
critical aspects of the Anglo-Saxon, Anglo-Norman and Angevin
worlds - and more. Essays consider the complexities of the Norman
administration in North Africa, the Canterbury primacy controversy
through the lens of the relics of St Ouen, and the meanings of
natura and divinitas in the works of Bernardus Silvestris.
Additional chapters explore cross-cultural definitions of
masculinity articulated through the biblical figure of David, the
social networks and monastic patronage of the female lords of
Braine, and the links between legal classifications of adultery and
thirteenth-century fabliaux. The Journal continues its focuson
source criticism with explorations of two Italian sources -- a
Miscellany from the Piedmontese monastery of Novalesa and an
overlooked Venetian source for Byzantine imperial history. A
re-assessment of the legal and judicial activities of King Henry I
rounds out the volume. Contributors: JASON BAXTER, LUIGI ANDREA
BERTO, APRIL HARPER, JOHN HUDSON, RUTH MAZO KARRAS, MATT KING,
BRIDGET K. RILEY, EDWARD M. SCHOOLMAN, YVONNE SEALE.
