Perceiving War and the Military reassesses this historical period of transition by an investigation of the contemporary world of thought that examines the impact and significance of a permanently increasing contact with warfare and armed violence. Her studies confirm the assumption of a gradual shift, but they most of all show that the irrevocable end of the Roman Peace was a crucial factor in the late Roman world becoming gradually “medieval”.Brill's series on the early Middle Ages ;v. 22.GaulHistory, MilitaryGaulHistory58 B.C.-511 A.DElectronic books.936.4/02Sarti Laury977778MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453039903321Perceiving war and the military in early Christian Gaul (ca. 400-700 A.D.)2227508UNINA
