- Double-weighted statement
- This is the product of 8 years’ work, taking in a broad range of primary material, including over 30 chansons de geste, as well as chronicle and prose recastings of the same narrative material and political theoretical texts. It covers the twelfth to fifteenth centuries across a Francophone cultural space including Burgundy, England, Italy and the Low Countries as well as France itself, and the enduring legacy of this material is sketched. The author has engaged substantially with historical and anthropological scholarship on rebellion, feud and crusade to relate the primary material to debates about conflict, sovereignty, hierarchy and legitimacy.
