Brown -- ASSER'S LIFE OF ALFRED / James Campbell. - To what extent did the historians of the early Middle Ages inherit the aims and methods of Greek and Roman historiography? How far were they influenced by classical conventions about literary genre, rhetorical technique and political subject-matter? A conference held in Exeter in 1985 brought together a number of distinguished scholars to discuss these questions. This book presents nine of the contributions, on representative authors from the fourth century to the ninth: Brian Warmington on Athanasius, John Matthews on Ammianus Marcellinus, Robert Markus on Prosper of Aquitaine, Jill Harries on Sozomen, Averil Cameron on Procopius, Roger Ray on Bede, Donald Bullough on Paul the Deacon, Tom Brown on Agnellus of Ravenna, and James Campbell on Asser. Together they provide an authoritative guide to the contrasts and continuities in history-writing from Byzantium to Alfred's Wessex. (Verlagstext).
