The Archaeology of the East Anglian Conversion by Richard Hoggett
The huge changes in the landscape as a result of the Christian conversion of East Anglia are examined in this multi-disciplinary study.
Well written and well structured, providing a detailed multi-disciplinary discussion* LANDSCAPES *
An important exercise in telling the story of conversion directly from the material evidence, rather than using archaeology simply to illustrate the Bedan narrative. * JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY *
A useful and provocative study which is imaginative in its building and use of models. * MEDIEVAL ARCHAEOLOGY *
[A] fine book. [...] The conclusions, full of hope and inspiration, suggest several major lines of research, as well as emphasising the enormous body of work produced in the past few decades. There is a surprising maturity in this volume, which at times reads like an indispensable textbook. * LANDSCAPE HISTORY *
