One opens each new volume expecting to find the unexpected - new
light on old arguments, new material, new angles. MEDIUM AEVUM The
articles brought together here demonstrate the exciting vitality of
this field. The volume begins with a keynote chapter on the failure
of marriages among Christians and Muslims in crusader diplomacy.
Other chapters consider the ceremony of knighting and the
coronation ritual of Matilda of Flanders. There are also
investigations of hunting landscapes in Cheshire, and Lancashire
before Lancashire in the context of the Irish Sea World, while
lordship is examined in two contexts, in post-Conquest England and
early thirteenth-century Le Mans and Chartres. The sources for our
knowledge of the period, as always, receive attention, whether
drawn from documentary evidence or material culture, with essays on
universal chronicle-writing and the construction of the Galfridian
past in the Continuatio Ursicampina; the coinage of Harold II; and
the patronage of the Bayeux Tapestry by Odo of Bayeux.
