Description and Table of Contents
Description
Celebrating the career of one of the most prodigious modern scholars of the early Middle Ages, Discovery and Distinction in the Early Middle Ages showcases the vibrancy of early medieval European history, highlighting new perspectives on the Carolingian renaissance in art, court culture, education, politics, religion, travel, and Jewish-Christian relations. The volume is divided into four parts: Authors and Audiences, Schools and Scholars, Context and Connections, and Visions and Voices. The collection will be of interest both to those already well versed in the topics discussed and to a wider audience eager to learn more about the expanding horizons of early medieval European history.
