WRITING, KINGSHIP AND POWER
IN ANGLO-SAXON ENGLAND
The workings of royal and ecclesiastical authority in Anglo-Saxon
England can only be understood on the basis of direct engagement
with original texts and material artefacts. This book, written by
leading experts, brings together new research that represents the
best of current scholarship on the nexus between authority and
written sources from Anglo-Saxon England. Ranging from the
seventh to the eleventh century, the chapters in this volume offer
fresh approaches to a wide range of linguistic, historical, legal, diplo-
matic and palaeographical evidence. Central themes include the for-
mation of power in early Anglo-Saxon kingdoms during the age of
Bede (d.
735)
and Offa of Mercia (757–96), authority and its articula-
tion in the century from Edgar (959–75) to
1066
and the significance
of books and texts in expressing power across the period.
Writing,
Kingship and Power
represents a critical resource for students and
scholars alike with an interest in early medieval history from political,
institutional and cultural perspectives.
