The period from the departure of the Romans through to the coming
of the Vikings saw the gradual conversion of the peoples of the
British Isles to Christianity and (with the exception of Ireland)
the redrawing of the ethnic and political map of the islands. The
chapters in this volume analyse in turn the different nationalities
and kingdoms that existed in the British Isles during this period,
the process of their conversion to Christianity, the development of
art and of a written culture and the interaction between this
written culture and the societies of the day. Moving away from the
pattern of histories constructed on the basis of later nation
states, this volume takes Britain and Ireland as a whole, so as to
understand them better as they were at the time and avoid
anachronistic divisions from a later era. It is an approach that
allows the volume to give greater weight to the important
religious, intellectual and artistic developments and interactions
of the period, which normally crossed national boundaries at this
time.
