The seven centuries of the Anglo-Saxon period in England, roughly AD 400-1100, were a time of extraordinary and profound transformation in almost every aspect of culture, transforming from barbarianism society to a recognisably medieval structure.  This volume examines the nature of the art of that period,  its varying influence and impact on Anglo-Saxon culture and the ways it reflected and influenced the shifting cultural context.
