They provide crucial evidence for early medieval society, including the settlement of disputes, the nature of political authority, literacy, and the construction of ethnic identities. Yet it has proved extremely difficult to establish why the codes were copied in the ninth century, how they were read, and how their rich evidence should be used. Thomas Faulkner tackles these questions more systematically than ever before, proposing new understandings of the relationship between the making of law and royal power, and the reading of law and the maintenance of ethnic identities. Faulkner suggests major reinterpretations of central texts, including the Carolingian law codes, the capitularies adding to the laws, and Carolingian revisions of earlier barbarian and Roman laws. He also provides detailed analysis of legal manuscripts, especially those associated with the 'leges-scriptorium'"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Law, Frankish. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85075227 650 0 $a Carolingians. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85020340 830 0 $a Cambridge studies in medieval life and thought. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n84743233 856 42 $3 Cover image $u http://assets.cambridge.org/97811070/84919/cover/9781107084919.jpg 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210020913.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8B689BA4F11E11E79D0FC10F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
