Women in Early Medieval Europe, 400-1100Cambridge University Press, 24 Eki 2002 - 326 sayfa Women in Early Medieval Europe is a history of the early European middle ages through the eyes of women, combining the rich literature of women's history with original research in the context of mainstream history and traditional chronology.
