Here, the concept is applied to the often atheoretical realm of medieval studies. Each contributor focuses on a particular topic of early medieval identity - ethnicity, national identity, social location, subjectivity/personhood, political organization, kiship, the body, gender, age, proximity/regionality, memory and ideological systems. The result is a pioneering vision of medieval social identity and a challenge to some of the received general wisdoms about this period.Studies in the early history of Britain.Civilization, MedievalGroup identityGreat BritainHistoryCommunity lifeGreat BritainHistoryEthnicityGreat BritainHistorySocial classesGreat BritainHistoryGreat BritainHistoryMedieval period, 1066-1485Civilization, Medieval.Group identityHistory.Community lifeHistory.EthnicityHistory.Social classesHistory.305.5/0941Frazer William O148936Tyrrell Andrew1970-1540587MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782848203321Social identity in early medieval Britain3792342UNINA
