{"product_id":"anglo-saxon-state","title":"Anglo-Saxon State","description":"The power, sophisitcation, unity and wealth of the late Anglo-Saxon state have long been underestimated. The shadow of defeatin 1066, and an assumption that the Normans brought about strong government and a unification that had not previously been there, has prevented many of the remarkable features of Anglo-Saxon society from being seen. In The Anglo-Saxon State James Campbell shows how strong, unified and well-governed Anglo-Saxon England was and how numerous and wealthy its inhabitants were. Late Anglo-Saxon England was also a country with a political class considerably wider than just the earls and thegns. William Stubb's vision of Anglo-Saxon England as a country with real representative institutions may indeed be truer than that of his denigrators. James Campbell's work demands the re-thinking of Anglo-Saxon history.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54223343681880,"sku":"9781852851767","price":223.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781852851767.jpg?v=1743742854","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/anglo-saxon-state","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
