商品簡介
Exile could be as complex as an expression of political or ecclesiastical authority or exclusion from the secular world in holy orders, or as simple as living apart from one's family as the result of marriage. These 15 papers, presented at the July 2002 conference, include an introduction to the contexts, the vocabulary of exile and outlawry, Norman exile into southern Italy, the reality and representation of Gruffudd ap Cynan, exile experiences of royal women, and marriage and excommunication in a noble house. Topics also include the concept of peregrinatio, exile and sanctity in royal Scandinavia and in Norman religious houses, exile in the lives and writings of Oystein of Nidaros, Osbert of Clare, Anselm, Thomas Becket, John of Salisbury, Saint Arulf of Oudenburg, and Arnold of Brescia.
