About the Book

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.1400CE. Each of the contributors reflect 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.

Review :
This work will stand the test of time and remain a significant and valuable work which acts as a fitting homage to the profoundly important work of Chris Wickham. This sizeable volume is a very worthy collection to honour the impact of Prefessor Chris Wickhamthere's something here for everyone, and certainly much to stimulate the Wickham tastebuds!
