Book synopsis

The question of what constitutes good and bad rulership in the central middle ages, in both theory and practice, is the linking theme in this latest volume of the Haskins Society Journal. The nine complementary papers range widely across the Carolingian world, Norman and Angevin England and southern Italy, and the Latin East, exploring contemporary attitudes to rule and rulers (especially kings), and the methods and symbolism of ruling, as well as the reputations of individual kings in modern historiography. Dr C. P. LEWIS teaches in the Department of History at the University of Liverpool; Dr EMMA COWNIE teaches in the Department of History, King's College, London. Contributors: JANET L. NELSON, STEPHANIE MOOERS CHRISTELOW, JEAN A. TRUAX, RALPH V. TURNER, BROCK W. HOLDEN, EMILIE AMT, G. A. LOUD, DAVID ABULAFIA, DEBORAH GERISH
