Marjorie Chibnall Boeken

    Marjorie Morgan McCallum Chibnall was een Engelse historicus en mediëvist wiens uitgebreide werk zich richtte op de middeleeuwse Normandische geschiedenis. Haar carrière, die meer dan zes decennia overspande, zag haar tot in de negentig blijven publiceren, en ze werd beroemd om haar meesterlijke edities en vertalingen van historische teksten. Haar meest significante bijdragen omvatten uitgebreide redactionele projecten en boeiende biografieën van belangrijke middeleeuwse figuren. Haar diepgaande inzicht in de Anglo-Normandische periode en haar precieze stilistische aanpak vestigden haar als een leidende figuur op dit gebied.

      The book explores the ongoing debate surrounding the Norman Conquest and its implications throughout history. It serves as a guide for students navigating the conflicting interpretations of this pivotal event, from its medieval legal and linguistic impacts to its role in constitutional debates. The concept of a "Norman yoke" spurred revolutionary thoughts and romanticized visions of a lost Saxon era. It also highlights the evolution of historical study, shifting focus from Saxon versus Norman institutions to broader themes like race, society, and women's studies, emphasizing a more comprehensive understanding of the period from the late 10th to early 13th century.
