In his hands, the structure and functions of Anglo-Saxon origin stories and charters (whether authentic or forged) illuminate English political and social structures, as well as ecclesiastical, urban and rural landscapes.

Excerpt from History of the Anglo-Saxons: From the Earliest Period to the Norman Conquest For the historical materials of this volume, I have been mainly indebted to the sterling and valuable work of the late Mr. Sharon Turner, who, during a long life, neglected no oppor tunity of acquiring information on the subject. I have before. On several occasions, had to acknowledge his kind and liberal assistance in historical inquiries and now that he is no more, gratify myself by again recording my obligations, and bearing testimony to the value of his labours. Many other works on anglo-saxon History, Manners, and Literature have been con sulted, but Turner left me very little to glean elsewhere.

This engaging study focuses on the role of assemblies in later Anglo-Saxon politics, challenging and nuancing existing models of the late Anglo-Saxon state. Its ten chapters investigate both traditional constitutional aspects of assemblies - who attended these events, where and when they met, and what business they conducted - and the symbolic and representational nature of these gatherings. Levi Roach takes into account important recent work on continental rulership, and argues that assemblies were not a check on kingship in these years, but rather an essential feature of it. In particular, the author highlights the role of symbolic communication at assemblies, arguing that ritual and demonstration were as important in English politics as they were elsewhere in Europe. Far from being exceptional, the methods of rulership employed by English kings look very much like those witnessed elsewhere on the continent, where assemblies and ritual formed an essential part of the political order.

Excerpt from The History of the Anglo-Saxons, Vol. 3 of 3: From the Earliest Period to the Norman Conquest In the Appendix to the first volume of this history, we have described the Saxons as they were on the continent, before they possessed themselves of the south part of Britain, during the fifth and sixth centuries; and we may remark, that the human character has seldom displayed qualities more inauspicious to the improvement of intellect or of moral character. When they first landed, they were bands of fierce, ignorant, idolatrous, and superstitious pirates, enthusiastically courageous, but habitually cruel.

Excerpt from The Anglo-Saxon Sagas: An Examination of Their Value as Aids to History; A Sequel to the "History of the Conquest of Britain by the Saxons" My dear Sir, Strange as the theory which is advocated in the following pages may appear, it is advanced with an entire conviction of its truth. In part, - as far as it relates to the Scyldings and their settlements in Northumbria, - it has been already submitted to the Society of Antiquaries of Newcastle-on-Tyne, and an abstract from my papers, accompanied by illustrative notes from the pen of their able secretary, Mr. Longstaffe, has appeared in their Transactions. These notes are incorporated in the present work, together with other valuable information kindly furnished by him to me.
