The Anglo-Norman world, with particular focus on the Normans in
Ireland. Founded by Professor R. Allen Brown, the Battle Conference
this year celebrates its 20th meeting in Dublin with a particular
focus on Irish topics. Anglo-Norman Studies, published annually and
containing the papers presented at the conference, is established
as the single most important publication in the field (as a glance
at bibliographies of the period will confirm), covering not only
matters relating to pre- and post-Conquest England and France,but
also the activities and influences of the Normans on the wider
European, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern stage.
The question of what constitutes good and bad rulership in the
central middle ages, in both theory and practice, is the linking
theme in this latest volume of the Haskins Society Journal. The
nine complementary papers range widely across the Carolingian
world, Norman and Angevin England and southern Italy, and the Latin
East, exploring contemporary attitudes to rule and rulers
(especially kings), and the methods and symbolism of ruling, as
well as the reputations of individual kings in modern
historiography. Dr C.P. LEWIS teaches in the Department of History
at the University of Liverpool; Dr EMMA COWNIE teaches in the
Department of History, King's College, London. Contributors: JANET
