Recenzii
This first volume of George Garnett's projected tripartite study is an important contribution to a growing literature on later English perceptions of the Norman Conquest.
This study is the fruit of meticulous archival research and analysis of printed and manuscript sources produced over nearly six centuries. The book strikes an impressive balance between legal history and the history of historiography....
As these long and deep influences imply, the Conquest in the intellectual mind of the nation is a truly vast topic, one whose tentilla reach into the historical crevices of many centuries. Only a brave historian would have undertaken it – and only a brilliant one could have done it justice. George Garnett has done it justice.
