Italy and Early Medieval Europe: Papers for Chris Wickham

A comprehensive survey of recent work in Medieval Italian history and archaeology, set within a broader context of studies on major transitions in Europe from c.400 to c.1400CE. Each of the contributors also reflect on the contribution made to the field by Chris Wickham, whose own work spans the transition from Roman to medieval Europe. This volume represents a comprehensive survey of recent work in medieval Italian history and archaeology by an international cast of contributors, arranged within a broader context of studies on other regions and major historical transitions in Europe, c.400 to c.1400 ce. Each of the contributors reflects on the contribution made to the field by Chris Wickham, whose own work spans studies based on close archival work, to broad and ambitious statements on economic and social change in the transition from Roman to medieval Europe, and the value of comparing this across time and space.
