Debating medieval Europe serves as an entry point for studying and
teaching medieval history. Rather than simply presenting
foundational knowledge or introducing sources, it provides the
reader with frameworks for understanding the distinctive
historiography of the period, digging beneath the historical
accounts provided by other textbooks to expose the contested
foundations of apparently settled narratives. It opens a space for
discussion and debate, as well as providing essential context for
the sometimes overwhelming abundance of specialist scholarship.
Volume I addresses the early Middle Ages, covering the period c.
450-c. 1050. The chapters are organised chronologically, and cover
such topics as the Carolingian Order, England and the 'Atlantic
Archipelago', the Vikings and Ottonian Germany. It features a
highly distinguished selection of medieval historians, including
Paul Fouracre and Janet L. Nelson. -- .

The studies and selected texts in this volume focus on literary and
cultural life in Strasbourg during the late middle ages. The
compendium might be regarded as a cultural topography of the
southwestern portion of the German-speaking realm during this
period. It explores the connections between book production, urban
culture and lives of religious devotion."
