Antonella Liuzzo Scorpo

Friendship in Medieval Iberia (eBook, PDF)

Historical, Legal and Literary Perspectives

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book contributes to the study of the history of emotions and cultural histories of the Middle Ages, while also adding another crucial piece to the broader historiographical debate currently challenging the most traditional view of the Iberian Peninsula's 'exceptionalism'. This interdisciplinary study considers whether Iberia should be rather considered as a peripheral, but still vital, ring in a chain which linked it to the rest of Europe, while occupying a central role in the historical and cultural developments of the Western Mediterranean.
