Multi-Disciplinary Approaches to Medieval Brittany, 450-1200
MEDIEVAL TEXTS & CULTURES OF NORTHERN EUROPE. Medieval Texts and Cultures of Northern Europe is a series which opens up a dedicated forum for comparative work on northern European medieval literature, history, and society and their significance in the modern world. It promotes dialogue between anglophone and con-Mental medievalists and addresses the need for transculmral perspectives on Europe's medieval origins in a way that is distinctive both in scope and in academic orientation.
The focus is on the medieval texts and cultures of the British Isles, northern and central mainland Europe, and Scandinavia. The chronological range of the series is from c. 800 AD to c. 1600 AD. Each volume makes available to an international readership excellent new work, offering ways of reading texts, cultures, and institutions that speak to the contemporary world. MULTI-DISCIPLINARY APPROACHES TO MEDIEVAL BRITTANY, 450-1200.
CONNECTIONS AND DISCONNECTIONS. While it is well-established that Brittany and the Insular world were closely linked during the medieval period, the precise nature of these connections continues to spark debate. Was there a significant migration in the fifth century, or were the connections more multi-faceted and enduring than medieval accounts suggest ? And how might we triangulate the Atlantic connections with other influences on medieval Brittany, including those from the Carolingian world ? Drawing together research that was first presented at the conference "Brittany and the Atlantic Archipelago : Contact, Myth and History 450-1200", held in Cambridge in December 2017, this volume seeks to present new and ground-breaking research into both Brittany and its broader European context during the medieval period.
The chapters gathered here range across various disciplines, including textual history, archaeology, hagiography, onomastics, and the study of liturgical evidence, offering new insights into our understanding of medieval Brittany, as well as drawing out particular connections (and disconnections) between Brittany and its neighbours.
