Medieval castles were, alongside the great cathedrals, the most
recognisable buildings of the medieval world. Closely associated
with concepts of justice, lordship and authority as well as
military might, castles came to encapsulate the period's very
essence. Looking at above and below-ground evidence and examining a
wide variety of sites - from towering donjons to earth and timber
castles - in different parts of western Europe, this book explores
the relationship between early castle building and the emergence of
a new aristocracy and investigates the impact of authority on the
organisation of the landscape.
