This book was released on 1986-11-27 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This, the first volume of Medieval European Coinage, surveys the coinage of Western Europe from the fall of the Roman Empire in the West in the fifth century to the emergence of recognizable 'national' political units in the tenth. It starts with the Vandals, Visigoths, Burgundians and other Germanic invaders of the Empire, whose coins were modelled on contemporary issues of the Western or Eastern emperors. The coinage of the Franks is followed from early Merovingian times through to the establishment and subsequent fragmentation of the Carolingian empire. Italy is represented by the coinages of the Ostrogoths, Lombards, Carolingians and popes down to the Ottoman conquest in the mid-tenth century. The coinage of the Anglo-Saxons is traced from the introduction of minting in the early seventh century to the emergence of a united kingdom during the first half of the tenth century, including the aberrant coinages of Northumbria and the Anglo-Viking coinages of the Danelaw.

Download or read book Image History and Politics written by Paul D. Van Wie and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1999 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Image, History, and Politics: The Coinage of Modern Europe examines money as a medium of communication laden with artistic and political meaning by studying the last two hundred years of European coinage. This book explores the political, economic, and aesthetic messages carried by coinage, therefore providing a special realm in which to view and constantly reevaluate major political and economic developments from the French Revolution through the Cold War, with occasional comparative references to earlier time periods. The study generally focuses on the pre-1914 'Great Powers' of Europe: France, Germany, Britain, Russia, the Hapsburg Monarchy, and Italy; along with a brief comparative examination of the coinage of Spain, Switzerland and Belgium. The author demonstrates how every political system, consciously or unconsciously, constructs a set of symbols as an expression of itself with its coinage, enabling historians and social scientists to synthesize political, economic, and artistic meaning in a historical context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Far from the oral society it was once assumed to have been, early medieval Europe was fundamentally shaped by the written word. This book offers a pioneering collection of fresh and innovative studies on a wide range of topics, each one representing cutting-edge scholarship, and collectively setting the field on a new footing. Concentrating on the role of writing in mediating early medieval knowledge of the past, on the importance of surviving manuscripts as clues to the circulation of ideas and political and cultural creativity, and on the role that texts of different kinds played both in supporting and in subverting established power relations, these essays represent a milestone in studies of the early medieval written word.
Download or read book Silver Coinage Historically Considered Classic Reprint written by Henry Dunning MacLeod and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Silver Coinage Historically Considered Charlemagne established the system of coinage which was adopted throughout western Europe. He made the pound weight of silver the standard, and divided it into 240 pieces, called pennies. For a considerable period the kings of France coined these pennies at their full weight and fineness. But about the beginning of the twelfth century they began not only to diminish their weight but to debase their purity. They considered it part of their inalienable divine right to declare that their subjects should accept the diminished and debased coins at the same value as the good coins of full weight. They further complicated matters by issuing gold coins, and they considered it as part of their divine right to change the rating of these coins with respect to each other as often as they pleased.
