The areas studied include Wales, England, France, Germany, Italy, and Byzantium, and the essays range across the period 650ā1150. A substantial introduction is included, which explains the nature of the issues, and a conclusion expresses the team's overall view of the subject. Aimed at a wide readership of both scholars and students, the volume also includes a glossary to help readers who may be unfamiliar with the material or the period.
