A series of introductory chapters explore such topics as the history of previous scholarship, the geological and historical background, plus a detailed analysis of the new information afforded by these major survivals of Anglo-Saxon art and archaeology. \n\nStocker and Everson conclude that the great majority of stone sculpture from these two counties belongs to the final century of Anglo-Saxon England, during which period they were rapidly expanding ecclesiastical societies, and deeply influenced by the great monasteries of Peterborough and Ely. The quantity of eleventh-century material permits an analysis of the impact of the Norman conquest on aspects of social, ecclesiastical, and cultural life, which is a running theme through the narrative.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Medieval European archaeology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Medieval European archaeology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Medieval%20European%20archaeology%20%5BHDDM%5D%22\"\u003eHDDM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"OUP Oxford","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52472066605336,"sku":"9780197267561","price":102.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780197267561_main.jpg?v=1785715307","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/corpus-of-anglo-saxon-stone-sculpture-xiv-cambridgeshire-and-huntingdonshire-hardback-9780197267561","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
