Book excerpt: Excerpt from English and French in England, 1066 1100 The present study of the relations between the French and English peoples and tongues in England between 1066 and i'iog is based upon a thesis presented to the faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Pennsylvania in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the doctorate in the year 1914. My original plan was to investigate the whole question of the relations between the two tongues in England during the entire Middle English period, but the stress: of duties in the Department of English has made it impossible to! Pursue the subject beyond the year I 100. Rather than post pone publication longer, I have deemed it best to print that part of the original thesis which concerns itself with the relations. Of the two peoples in the land and therefore aims to lay the necessary foundation for any fresh study of the relations. Be tween the two languages.

Download or read book Conquest and Colonisation written by Brian Golding and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Norman Conquest of 1066 - often described as the last successful foreign invasion of England - is one of the most famous and significant events in English history. William the Conqueror's narrow victory at Hastings was the prelude to the settlement of an alien aristocracy and culture that ultimately affected not only England, but much of Wales and Scotland. Its impact has been a matter of heated controversy since the seventeenth century: was the Conquest merely a continuation under new leadership of established patterns of government and society, or did it result in cataclysmic change? Certainly, the close ties thus established between Normandy and England were to influence Anglo-French relations throughout the Middle Ages, while the emergence of a new dominant establishment culture was indicated not only in 'high politics' but in such areas as language and architecture. Norman colonisation was a long process, hardly complete by 1100, by which time there were already strong signs of assimilation between colonists and natives, and a literature stressing a coherent and integrated Anglo-Norman state. After first providing an analysis of its political context and realisation, this book investigates the Conquest from a number of perspectives. It examines the dynamics of colonisation and explores the effect of the Norman settlement in a number of key areas including government, military organisation and the Church.

Book excerpt: Medieval England presents the political and cultural development of English society from the Norman Conquest to the end of the Wars of the Roses. It is a story of change, progress, setback, and consolidation, with England emerging as a wealthy and stable country, many of whose essential features were to remain unchanged until the Industrial Revolution. Edmund King traces his chronicle through the lives of successive monarchs, the inescapable central thread of that epoch. The momentous events of the times are also recreated, from the compiling of the Domesday Book, through the wars with the Scots, the Welsh, and the French, to the Peasants' Revolt and the disastrous Black Death.
