It also illuminates the little studied relations between less powerful counts and their neighboring territorial princes. Organized chronologically from the late ninth through mid-twelfth century, each chapter provides a political narrative and an analysis of the use of kinship and alliance (formal and informal) to govern and conduct politics. The final chapter examines the formation of reputation and identity of the comital family of Boulogne. The book is part of the larger debate on feudalism, the rise of government institutions, kinship and identity. 410 0$aThe Northern World ;$v6. 517 3 $aBoulogne and Politics in Northern France and England, c.879-1160 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aPolitics and government 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 0$aPolitics and government. 676 $a944.27 700 $aTanner$b Heather$01074783 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450263303321 996 $aFamilies, Friends and Allies$92581761 997 $aUNINA
