Aus dem Nachlass von Michael Richter. Gebraucht, aber sehr gut erhalten. Richters Rezensionsexemplar für die HZ. Beiliegend: Rezensionsanfrage der HZ -- Richters Notizen -- 1., maschinenschriftliche, Fassung der Rezension = massiver Verriss -- Brief des Autors an Richter, offenbar als Reaktion auf ein Schreiben Richters, in dem dieser sich entsetzt über den Herausgeber Dumville und dessen Arbeit äußert -- 2. Fassung der Rezension, etwas moderater -- Imprimatur der 2. Fassung -- Ausdrucksseiten der HZ mit der endgültugen Rezension. - Inhalt: The Church and the Welsh Border in the Tenth and Eleventh Centuries -- The Archbishops of St Davids, Llandaff, and Caerleon-on-Usk -- St Peter of Gloucester and St Cadog of Llancarfan -- Geoffrey of Monmouth as a Historian. - The four major studies in this book reflect this distinguished historian's continuing interest in relations between England and Wales in the tenth, eleventh and twelfth centuries. An introduction places the conclusions offered in these studies within the current framework of historical thinking about Wales in this period. The four papers, originally published in the years from 1958 to 1976, then follow in a thoroughly revised form, taking account of more recent developments in the subject and of the impact of the original papers upon our perception of Welsh history and Anglo-Welsh ecclesiastical relations. The first chapter, a survey of Anglo-Welsh ecclesiastical life in the tenth and eleventh centuries, is followed by 'The Archbishops of St Davids, Llandaff and Caerleon-on-Usk', in which the twelfth-century claims of certain major Welsh churches to extensive jurisdiction and the methods by which they promoted their claims are subjected to a searching analysis. In 'St Peter of Gloucester and St Cadog of Llancarfan' Professor Brooke makes a detailed examination of the complicated links which bound together the churches of Gloucester and Llancarfan from about 1100 and of the sources which reveal these ties. Finally in 'Geoffrey of Monmouth as a historian' the motivation and methods of one of the most controversial personalities of the Anglo-Welsh Church are fruitfully considered, building further on ideas first developed in Chapter 2.
