The 10th Century in Western Europe
Archaeopress (Verlag)
978-1-80327-513-0 (ISBN)
The 10th century in Western Europe includes eleven essays, ranging from Portugal to Iceland, including Spain, England, Ireland, France and Italy, embracing a variety of methodological approaches and scrutinizing numerous and diverse types of sources, including archaeological finds along with textual evidence such as historical narratives, hagiography, and cartularies. The contributions revise, challenge and enhance the existing scholarship on early medieval societies and their political and social complexities, while making readers aware of the wide-ranging and intertwined processes which defined change and continuity in tenth-century Western Europe. Essays from both historians and archaeologists achieve a re-reading of a the tenth century, which has been central to the interpretation of the historical development of Europe over the past decade.
Igor Santos Salazar is ricercatore at the University of Trento where he teaches Medieval History. His current research is concentrated on the forms of articulation of rural society, the documentary culture of the laity, and the administration of justice and fiscal goods by central authorities from the fifth to the twelfth centuries between Italy and Spain. Catarina Tente is Associate Professor of Archaeology at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa. She is a Reseacher at the Institute of Medieval Studies – School of Social Sciences and Humanities (IEM-NOVA FCSH) . Her current research focuses on early medieval communities, particularly in the Portuguese inland territories of Beira Alta. She has promoted several scientific meetings, and shared their findings in international conferences, which have been published in papers, chapters, and book form. Her research and associated activities have been developed within working protocols with municipalities from the Portuguese inland, promoting decentralized research and social returns for local communities.
