With over 180 maps, expert commentaries and an extensive bibliography, this second edition of an essential reference guide to medieval Europe brings the complex and colourful history of the Middle Ages to life.

The Atlas of Medieval Europe covers the period from the fall of the Roman Empire through to the beginnings of the Renaissance, spreading from the Atlantic coast to the Russian steppes. Each map approaches a separate issue or series of events in medieval history, and a commentary locates it in its broader context.

This second edition has over forty new maps covering a variety of topics including:

  • the Moravian Empire
  • environmental change
  • the travels and correspondence of Froissart and travellers in the east
  • the layout of great castles and palaces.

Thorough coverage is also given to geographically peripheral areas like Portugal, Poland, Scandinavia and Ireland.

Providing a vivid representation of the development of nations, peoples and social structures, and charting political and military events, the Atlas takes a detailed look at a variety of key areas including language and literature; the development of trade, art and architecture; and the great cities and lives of historical figures.

Every student of medieval European history should own a copy of this book.

Medieval Frontier Societies (Paperback, New edition): Robert Bartlett, Angus MacKay Medieval Frontier Societies (Paperback, New edition)
Robert Bartlett, Angus MacKay
R1,471 Discovery Miles 14 710 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

to copywriter: Always list contributors This first study of the nature of frontiers and frontier societies in the Middle Ages focuses on those between England and Scotland, Wales and Ireland, Castile and Granada, and on the Elbe. It examines the consequences for frontier societies of being located in areas of cross-cultural contact, and often confrontation. Institutions, expectations and even local family structures are shown to have been products of an environment of long-term and ubiquitous fighting. But, devices also developed in frontier societies for mediation, arbitration, and negotiation. Interaction between different religions, laws, languages, and mores, was often hostile, but could sometimes be flexible - responses which are reflected, for example, in the literature and poetry of the areas involved. This comparative study, by expert contributors, throws new and important light on our thinking about frontiers, and fills a major gap in the history of medieval Europe. Contributors: Geoffrey Barrow, Robert Bartlett, Robert I. Burns, Jose Enrique Lopez de Coca Castaner, Rees Davies, Robin Frame, Anthony Goodman, Manuel Conzalez Jimenez, Paul Knoll, Friedrich Lotter, Angus MacKay, Katherine Simms, Alfred Thomas.

INTRODUCTION. A number of the songs in this collection have been heard by campfire and trail from the camps of British Columbia to the lumber camps of Maine. Several of the songs have been fired at the Huns somewhere in France, no doubt with deadly effect. And also at the Turks on the long long hike to Bagdad and beyond. And it is not impossible that some ofmy countrymen are now warbling snatches of my humble verse to the accompaniment of bagpipes on the streets of the New Jerusalem Many of the verses have appeared from time to time in leading publications from Vancouver, B. C., to the New England States and Eastern Canada while others appear in print here for the first time. From all parts of the land I have received letters at various times asking for extra copies of some particular song in my humble collection, which I was not in a position to supply at the time. I therefore decided to publish some of the songs for which a demand had been expressed, and in so doing offer to the reading public in extenuation of my offense the plea that in a manner this humble volume is being published by request. 1 offer no apology for my dialect songs as they have already received the approval of music lovers whose judgment is beyond criticism. For the errors which must inevitably creep into the work of a non-college-bred lumberjack, the indulgence of all highbrows who may resent my 1 crave inability to comb the classics for copy to please them. All the merit I can claim is the ability to rhyme a limerick or sing a come-all-ye in a manner perhaps not unpleasing to my friends. The lumberjacks will understand me, 1 am sure, and will appreciate my humble efforts to entertain them. As for the genialhighbrow, should he deem me an interloper in the realm of letters and imagine that my wild, uncultured notes are destroying the harmony of his supersensitive soul, I shall lope back to the tall timber again and seek sympathy and appreciation among the lumberjacks of the forest primeval, where, amid the wild surroundings and the crooning of the trees, there is health for mind and body borne on every passing breeze. Yes, theres something strangely healing in the magic of the myrrh, in the odor of the cedar and the fragrance of the fir. There the hardy lumberjack is the undisputed lord of the lowlands and chief of the highlands, and at the present time no soldier in the trenches or sailor on the rolling deep has a more arduous task to perform or a more important duty to discharge than he. Toil on, ye Titans of the tall timbers steadfast soldiers of the saw, and able allies of the axe. Carry on till the stately trees which constitute the glory of the West are converted into ships and planes in countless thousands, to win the great war for freedom and to make the world safe for democracy and lumberjacks THE AUTHOR.
