Focusing on the early narrative sources of the Ostrogoths, Franks, Anglo-Saxons, and Lombards, Walter Goffart analyzes the works of four key writers: Jordanes, Gregory of Tours, Bede, and Paul the Deacon. This paperback edition, which won the Medieval Academy of America's Haskins Medal, includes a preface where Goffart addresses questions raised since its original release in 1988 and updates the bibliography to reflect recent scholarship. The book offers valuable insights into the historical context and contributions of these authors.
