Förlagets beskrivning
The essays in this volume honour the career and achievements of Richard Abels, the distinguished historian of medieval military history; in particular, they aim to reflect how the "cultural turn" in the field has led to exciting new developments in scholarship. Ranging from the late eighth century to the fifteenth, from northern England to the Levant, the chapters analyze how medieval kings and commanders practiced a genuine military science, how the meanings of victory and defeat were constructed by chroniclers and whole societies, how wars were remembered and propagandized, and how religion and war mixed. JOHN D. HOSLER is associate professor of military history at the US Army Command and General Staff College, Fort Leavenworth; STEVEN ISAAC is the Simpson Professor of Medieval History, Longwood University. Contributors: Bernard S. Bachrach, David S. Bachrach, David Crouch, Kelly DeVries, John France, John B. Gillingham, Carroll Gillmor, John D. Hosler, Steven Isaac, Richard W. Kaeuper, Ryan Lavelle, Stephen R. Morillo, Jennifer Paxton, Clifford J. Rogers
