Volume 13 can be  said to be truly interdisciplinary, carrying papers from diverse  areas such as place-name studies, art history, historiography and  archaeology. A strong theme in this issue is the early  Anglo-Saxon period, with a range of papers touching on aspects of  migration. Another shared theme is the complexity and  multiplicity of meaning in iconography and art, whilst military strategy and military kit take this volume into the Late Saxon  period.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49570629484817,"sku":"GOR009105050","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0947816224.jpg?v=1751076951"},{"product_id":"perceptions-of-the-prehistoric-in-anglo-saxon-england-book-sarah-semple-9780198844112","title":"Perceptions of the Prehistoric in Anglo-Saxon England","description":"Perceptions of the Prehistoric in Anglo-Saxon England represents an unparalleled exploration of the place of prehistoric monuments in the Anglo-Saxon psyche, and examines how Anglo-Saxon communities perceived and used these monuments during the period AD 400-1100. Sarah Semple employs archaeological, historical, art historical, and literary sources to study the variety of ways in which the early medieval population of England used the prehistoric legacy in the landscape, exploring it from temporal and geographic perspectives. Key to the arguments and ideas presented is the premise that populations used these remains, intentionally and knowingly, in the articulation and manipulation of their identities: local, regional, political, and religious. They recognized them as ancient features, as human creations from a distant past. They used them as landmarks, battle sites, and estate markers, giving them new Old English names. Before, and even during, the conversion to Christianity, communities buried their dead in and around these monuments. After the conversion, several churches were built in and on these monuments, great assemblies and meetings were held at them, and felons executed and buried within their surrounds. This volume covers the early to late Anglo-Saxon world, touching on funerary ritual, domestic and settlement evidence, ecclesiastical sites, place-names, written sources, and administrative and judicial geographies. Through a thematic and chronologically-structured examination of Anglo-Saxon uses and perceptions of the prehistoric, Semple demonstrates that populations were not only concerned with Romanitas (or Roman-ness), but that a similar curiosity and conscious reference to and use of the prehistoric existed within all strata of society.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51168340115729,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51168340246801,"sku":"NIN9780198844112","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51622530711825,"sku":"NGR9780198844112","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52417239384337,"sku":"CIN0198844115G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52516137337105,"sku":"NLS9780198844112","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0198844115.jpg?v=1750694506"},{"product_id":"early-medieval-sculpture-in-stone-book-juliette-s-mitchell-9781837651535","title":"Early Medieval Sculpture in Stone","description":"Le bruit des r acteurs reste une composante sonore importante dans les moteurs a ronautiques modernes.
