This is the only book on the market to provide an in-depth analysis and discussion of the theme of migration in medieval England. Its themes - the movement of people and the social and cultural effects of migration - chime strongly with current debates in the UK on immigration; the book demonstrates that movement was a constant influence on the development of the kingdom of England and the concept of Englishness.

W. Mark Ormrod is Professor Emeritus of History at the University of York, where he worked from 1990 to 2016. A specialist in the politics and political culture of later medieval England, he is the author of numerous books, articles and chapters, as well as editions and online resources.

Joanna Story is professor of Early Medieval History at the University of Leicester where she has worked since 1996. She specialises in the period c. AD 600-900, and in the material culture of the written word in manuscript and epigraphic form. Her research and publications are characterised by an interdisciplinary approach to evidence, combining data derived from text, images, and physical remains surviving from the early medieval European past and deploying traditional historical techniques alongside methods used in archaeology and physical sciences.

Elizabeth M. Tyler is Professor of Medieval Literature at the University of York and co-director of the Centre for Medieval Literature, a Danish Centre of Excellence (University of Southern Denmark and York). She works on the literature of early and high medieval England within its European context. Her books include England in Europe: English Royal Women and Literary Patronage c. 1000-c. 1150 (Toronto, 2017) and (as co-editor) Historical Writing in Britain and Ireland, 500-1500 (CUP, 2019). She is currently working on a literary history of the Anglo-Saxon chronicles and a project on the writing of vernacular languages in the Latin West from late antiquity to the twelfth century.
