The Image of the Barbarian in Medieval Europe
On various occasions civilized man has found himself marching side by side with men at lower levels of social and cultural development. The great civilizations were accustomed to compare themselves quite favorably with these barbarian neighbors, whom they viewed with varying degrees of condescension, suspicion, scorn, and dread. The pejorative implications of the word barbarian were almost invariably present in its use in Graeco-Latin antiquity a…
England against the Celtic Fringe
Medieval England was bounded on the North and East by three Celtic societies which had, in some respects, preserved relatively unchanged their archaic cultures of the early Iron Age. In pre-Conquest England the Anglo-Saxon farmers had feared and fought the marauding "Scots" from Ireland, the fierce Picts, and the "Britons" of Wales. The three medieval Celtic peoples showed signs of their common ancestry and affinity of their social, economic, and…
The English Church and Royal Propaganda During the Hundred Years War
The main force shaping English institutional development during the late middle ages was the intermittent but seemingly endless war with France—a war that was occasionally expanded to include the struggle with France's enthusiastic Scottish ally. Hardly an aspect of English society remained unaffected by these conflicts: the crown was obliged to organize and manage the war effort; the nobility and many freemen had to fight; and most of the popula…

Lollards and Images
England during the late fourteenth and the fifteenth centuries provided the scene for a debate over the religious uses of art, which, in its literary productiveness if not in its actual results, recalls the great Byzantine Iconoclast Controversy. Not since the Carolingian era, when Christian Europe had been obliged to reconsider its views in response to the challenge posed by Greek Iconoclasts, had the theological, moral, and historical rationale…

The Court of the Verge
The royal court known variously as the “court of the verge,” the “court of the steward and marshal,” or the “Marshalsea court,” and which was said to try “pleas of the hall” ( placita aule ), appeared as a distinct and separate tribunal during the second half of Edward I's reign. It is difficult to trace the process whereby it distinguished its highly specialized jurisdiction over matters of personal interest to the king and his household from th…

Patronage and Administration
During the later Middle Ages in England both church and state were multiplying their pretensions and powers. The growth of spiritual and temporal administration alike depended upon the availability of bureaucrats willing and able to serve the two powers in the fields of finance, law, administration, and diplomacy. In the absence of cash for paying for services of this kind, popes, prelates, and princes developed means for subsidizing their civil …

A Critical Study of Bilingualism and Non-verbal Intelligence
Previous investigations undertaken in Wales have yielded somewhat contradictory results concerning the influence of bilingualism on performance in non-verbal tests of intelligence. More recent surveys, planned on a wider scale, consistently reveal a tendency for mean scores on such non-verbal tests to decrease with increasing Welsh linguistic background, and also show statistically significant differences in favour of monoglot (English) groups by…
