Abstract

Siegel sind in all ihren materiellen und symbolischen Manifestationen nicht nur zentrale Objekte archäologischer und kulturwissenschaftlicher Forschung, sie konstituieren auch ein essenzielles Thema im interdisziplinären Diskurs. Siegel repräsentieren eine Gattung von Objekten, die in den verschiedensten Zeiten, Räumen und Kulturen Verwendung fanden und finden, und die als vom Menschen erdachte und gemachte ?kulturelle Artefakte? die ihnen jeweils zugeschriebenen Rollen und Funktionen erfüllen. Siegel und Siegeln werden im Fokus der Kulturtechnik betrachtet, so dass Funktionen des Siegelns und die siegelnden Personen in den Vordergrund rücken. Im interdisziplinären Umfeld werden neue Fragestellungen aufgeworfen und Methoden angewendet, die die Evidenz in ihren sozialen und zeitlichen Kontexten zum Sprechen bringen. So werden beispielsweise altorientalische Epen, Bilder des pharaonischen Ägypten und epigraphische Dokumente der griechischen Staatenwelt in den Diskurs eingebracht. Die interdisziplinäre Zusammensetzung macht diesen vielseitigen Zugriff ebenso wie den chronologischen Streifzug durch fast vier Jahrtausende vom 3. Jahrtausend v. Chr. bis zum Ende des 1. Jahrtausends n. Chr. möglich.

Abstract

"This is a collection of original essays on gift in the early Middle Ages, from Anglo-Saxon England to the Islamic world. Focusing on the languages of gift, the essays reveal how early medieval people visualized and thought about gift, and how they distinguished between the giving of gifts and other forms of social, economic, political and religious exchange. The same team, largely, that produced the widely cited The Settlement of Disputes in Early Medieval Europe (Cambridge University Press, 1986) has again collaborated in a collective effort that harnesses individual expertise in order to draw from the sources a deeper understanding of the early Middle Ages by looking at real cases, that is at real people, whether peasant or emperor. The culture of medieval gift has often been treated as archaic and exotic; in this book, by contrast, we see people going about their lives in individual, down-to-earth and sometimes familiar ways"--

Abstract

This volume presents Europe-wide perspectives on urban life in medieval Europe through the study of artefacts and environmental remains. 0Artefacts and environmental remains are abundant from archaeological excavations across Europe, but until now they have most commonly been used to accompany broader narratives built on historical sources and studies of topography and buildings, rather than being studied as important evidence in their own right. The papers in this volume aim to redress the balance by taking an environmental and artefact-based approach to life in medieval Europe.00The contributions included here address central themes such as urban identities, the nature of towns and their relationship with their hinterlands, provisioning processes, and the role of ritual and religion in everyday life. Case studies from across Europe encourage a comparative approach between town and country, and provide a pan-European perspective to current debates.00The volume is divided into four key parts: an exploration of the processes of provisioning; an assessment of the dynamics of urban population; an examination of domestic life; and a discussion of the status quaestionis and future potential of urban environmental archaeology. Together, these sections make a significant contribution to medieval archaeology and offer new and unique insights into the conditions of everyday life in medieval Europe.
