Das altindische gesellschaftliche Leben, das Wirken der großen Religionsstifter Buddha und Mahāvīra, die in den Epen geschilderten dramatischen Ereignisse - all das hat sich nicht im luftleeren Raum abgespielt, sondern hatte eine konkrete irdische Basis. Professor Klaus Mylius (Goethe-Universität Frankfurt), ein gleichermaßen renommierter Indologe und Geograph, hat sich auf die Spurensuche begeben. In diesem Buch überprüft er die altindischen Quellen dahingehend, ob und inwieweit sie über die geographische Situation in vedischer und postvedischer Zeit Auskunft geben können. Das Buch enthält also die Namen von Bergen, Flüssen, Landschaften, Siedlungen, Völkern und Reichen. Im Rahmen des wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisstandes wurde auch die Lokalisierung der mitunter bis zu 3000 Jahre alten geographischen Namen vorgenommen

This volume brings together a series of case studies of spatial configurations of power among the early medieval societies of Europe. The geographical range extends from Ireland to Kosovo and from Scandinavia to the Mediterranean world and brings together quite different scholarly traditions in a focused enquiry into the character of places of power from the end of the Roman period into the central middle ages. The book's strength lies in the basis that it provides for a comparative analysis of the formation, function and range of power relations in early medieval societies. The editors' introductory chapter provides an extended scene setting review of the current state of knowledge in the field of early medieval social complexity and sets out an agenda for future work in this topical area. The regional and local case studies found in the volume, most of them interdisciplinary, showcase detailed studies of particular situations at a range of scales. While much previous work tends to focus on comparisons with the classical world, this volume emphasizes the uniqueness of early medieval modes of social organization and the need to assess these societies on their own terms.

Au croisement de l'histoire et de la linguistique, l'onomastique est la science qui a pour objet d'étude les noms de lieux (toponymie) et de personnes (anthroponymie). L'essor de l'histoire locale et de la généalogie, ainsi que de nombreux débats de société témoignent de l'importance croissante accordée à la question du nom dans toutes ses dimensions, origine, évolution, transmission. Aujourd'hui, c'est à l'ensemble des sciences humaines et sociales que cette discipline ouvre des voies d'investigation.D'abord destiné aux spécialistes, ce guide méthodologique et analytique propose une vaste sélection d'ouvrages et d'articles de référence en la matière. Couvrant les différentes régions de France, il vise à faire découvrir à un plus large public l'onomastique et ses outils de travail.
