English Medieval DiplomacyIndiana University Press, 1985/07/22 - 174 ページ This insightful survey examines the aims, successes, and failures of English diplomacy from the Anglo-Saxons to the Tudors. G. P. Cuttino focuses on three paramount factors which he believes determined the course of English medieval diplomacy during this often confusing period: The Norman Conquest, the marriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine to Henry II, and the English claim to the throne of France. By examining these critical and central themes and the major landmark documents that they produced, Cuttino concisely defines the main features of English medieval diplomacy for students and scholars alike. |
