Readings in Medieval History - second edition edited by Patrick J. GearyFour principles guide the selection of materials. First, entire documents are included wherever possible, not snippets. Second, texts are grouped to form dossiers in which the individual documents relate to one another, reflecting the practice of historians themselves. Third, most of the documents chosen have been the subject of significant scholarship. And fourth, raw material for many types of historical investigations is provided: the documents are equally useful to the political historian, the social historian, the cultural historian or the historian of mentalities.This paperback book is in good condition with minor imperfections to the cover.ISBN 10: 1551111586 / ISBN 13: 9781551111582Publisher: Broadview PressPublication Date: 1997
