In this book, Shami Ghosh analyses the relative significance granted to the Roman and non-Roman inheritances in narratives of the distant past, and what the use of this past reveals about the historical consciousness of early medieval elites, and demonstrates that for them, cultural identity was conceived of in less binary terms than in most modern scholarship. 606 $aGermanic peoples$xHistory$yTo 1500$xHistoriography 606 $aGermanic peoples$xHistory$yTo 1500$vSources 606 $aNarration (Rhetoric)$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aHistoriography$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aOral tradition$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aEthnicity in literature 606 $aLatin literature, Medieval and modern$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGermanic literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMiddle Ages$xHistoriography 606 $aMiddle Ages$vSources 615 0$aGermanic peoples$xHistory$xHistoriography. 615 0$aGermanic peoples$xHistory 615 0$aNarration (Rhetoric)$xHistory 615 0$aHistoriography$xHistory 615 0$aOral tradition$xHistory 615 0$aEthnicity in literature. 615 0$aLatin literature, Medieval and modern$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGermanic literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMiddle Ages$xHistoriography. 615 0$aMiddle Ages 676 $a940.12072 700 $aGhosh$b Shami$01651415 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809344403321 996 $aWriting the barbarian past$94017313 997 $aUNINA
