Focusing on early medieval historiography, this collection delves into narratives like Bede's Historia ecclesiastica and the use of printed maps to convey historical events, particularly the 'map of the barbarian invasions.' It explores diverse topics, including the Life of St Severinus of Noricum, dating Beowulf, the characterization of the barbarian invasions as a 'heroic age,' and Charlemagne's influence on succession. The volume concludes with reflections on the previously published essays, enriching the discourse on these historical themes.
