LORDS OF BATTLE
Evans Stephen S.
ISBN: 0851156622
The Boydell Press, UK 1998
4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall Card Cover Lords of Battle examines the image of the comitatus, or warband, as it is portrayed in literary and historical sources from Britain's early medieval period, and seeks to determine the extent to which this image reflects a historical reality. After a review of the historical background of Dark Age Britain, Stephen Evans explores the the practical characteristics of the comitatus, such as its military organisation: its internal social structure and its place within society as a whole. He also examines the cultural social and economic institutions which produced and supported the warband, including the role of the coujrt poets, the importance of the hall, hostage-taking and fosterage and food-renders, britube and booty.
