Krátký popis
Updated with the latest archaeological research new chapters on the
most influential yet widely unrecognised people of the British
isles, In Search of the Dark Ages illuminates the fascinating and
mysterious centuries between the Romans and the Norman Conquest of
1066. In this new edition, Michael Wood vividly conjures some of
the most important people in British history such as Hadrian, a
Libyan refugee from the Arab conquests and arguably the most
important person of African origin in British history, to Queen
Boadicea, the leader of a terrible war of resistance against the
Romans.Here too, warts and all, are the Saxon, Viking and Norman
kings who laid the political foundations of England: Offa of
Mercia, Alfred the Great, Athelstan, and William the Conqueror,
whose victory at Hastings in 1066 marked the end of Anglo-Saxon
England. Reflecting the latest historical, textual and
archaeological research, this revised and updated edition of
Michael Wood's classic book overturns preconceptions of the Dark
Ages as a shadowy and brutal era, showing them to be a richly
exciting and formative period in the history of Britain.
