Publisher's Synopsis
`No single enterprise has done more to enlarge and deepen our understanding of one of the most critical periods in English history.'ANTIQUARIES JOURNAL The Battle Conferences, from which Anglo-Norman Studies derives, have been rightly described as one of the `great historical enterprises' inaugurated and inspired by Professor R. Allen Brown. Scholars from many parts of Europe and North America, as well as the Middle East and Japan, present the latest research in Anglo-Norman and late Old English history. Papers on archaeology, architecture, literature and language are prominent alongside those on every aspect of history; a notable feature is the practical study of arms and armour.
