This illustrated book introduces serious students of Anglo-Saxon
culture to selected aspects of the realities of Anglo-Saxon life
through reference to artefacts and textual sources. Everyday
practices and processes are investigated, such as the exploitation
of animals for clothing, meat, cheese and parchment; ships for
travel, trade and transport; manufacturing processes of metalwork;
textiles for dress and furnishing and the practicalities of living
with illness or disability. Articles collected in this volume
illuminate how an understanding of the material culture of the
daily Anglo-Saxon world can inform reading and scholarship in
Anglo-Saxon studies. Scholarly and practical material presented
inform one another, making the book accessible to any reader
seriously interested in England in the early Middle Ages.
