Battles have long featured prominently in historical consciousness,
as moments when the balance of power was seen to have tipped, or
when aspects of collective identity were shaped. But how have
perspectives on warfare changed? How similar are present day
ideologies of warfare to those of the medieval period? Looking back
over a thousand years of British, Irish and Scandinavian battles,
this significant collection of essays examines how different times
and cultures have reacted to war, considering the changing roles of
religion and technology in the experience and memorialisation of
conflict. While fighting and killing have been deplored, glorified
and everything in between across the ages, Writing Battles reminds
us of the visceral impact left on those who come after.
