| Synopsis: |
The Archaeology of the Eleventh Century addresses many key questions surrounding this formative period of English history, considering conditions before 1066 and how these changed. The impact of the Conquest of England by the Normans is the central focus of the book, which assesses the destruction and upheaval caused by the invading forces but also examines how the Normans contributed to local culture, religion and society. The volume explores a range of topics including food culture, funerary practices, the development of castles and their impact, and how both urban and rural life evolved during the eleventh century. Through its nuanced approach to the complex relationships and regional identities which characterized the period, this collection stimulates renewed debate and challenges some of the long-standing myths surrounding the Conquest. . Presenting new discoveries and fresh ideas in a readable style, with numerous illustrations, this interdisciplinary book is an invaluable resource for those interested in the archaeology, history, geography, art and literature of the eleventh century. |
