Ranging from the ninth to the twelfth century, its five primary manuscripts offer a virtually contemporary history of Anglo-Saxon England, contribute to the body of Old English prose and poetic texts, and enable scholars to document how the Old English language changed.In Families of the King, Alice Sheppard explicitly addresses the larger interpretive question of how the manuscripts function as history. She shows that what has been read as a series of disparate entries and peculiar juxtapositions is in fact a compelling articulation of collective identity and a coherent approach to writing the secular history of invasion, conquest, and settlement. Sheppard argues that, in writing about the king's performance of his lordship obligations, the annalists transform literary representations of a political ethos into an identifying culture for the Anglo-Saxon nobles and those who conquered them. 410 0$aToronto Old English series ;$v12. 606 $3(DE-601)106096982$3(DE-588)4071769-0$aGeschichtsbild$2gnd 606 $3(DE-601)106265229$3(DE-588)4031516-2$aKönig$2gnd 606 $aHISTORY / Medieval$2bisacsh 607 $aGreat Britain$xKings and rulers 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yAnglo-Saxon period, 449-1066$xHistoriography 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yNorman period, 1066-1154$xHistoriography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aGeschichtsbild 615 7$aKönig 615 7$aHISTORY / Medieval. 676 $a942.01 700 $aSheppard$b Alice (Alice Juanita)$01032834 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456375603321 996 $aFamilies of the king$92450927 997 $aUNINA
