to copywriter: Always list contributorsThis first study of the nature of frontiers and frontier societies in the Middle Ages focuses on those between England and Scotland, Wales and Ireland, Castile and Granada, and on the Elbe. It examines the consequences for frontier societies of being located in areas of cross-cultural contact, and often confrontation. Institutions, expectations and even local family structures are shown to have been products of an environment of long-term and ubiquitous fighting. But, devices also developed in frontier societies for mediation, arbitration, and negotiation. Interaction between different religions, laws, languages, and mores, was often hostile, but could sometimes be flexible - responses which are reflected, for example, in the literature and poetry of the areas involved. This comparative study, by expert contributors, throws new and important light on our thinking about frontiers, and fills a major gap in the history of medieval Europe.Contributors: Geoffrey Barrow, Robert Bartlett, Robert I. Burns, José Enrique López de Coca Castañer, Rees Davies, Robin Frame, Anthony Goodman, Manuel Conzález Jiménez, Paul Knoll, Friedrich Lotter, Angus MacKay, Katherine Simms, Alfred Thomas.

Ian Macpherson and Angus MacKay bring together versions in English of sixteen articles published in journals and festschrift volumes over the past two decades. The articles are revised and selected from those which deal with questions of love, religion and politics in the fifteenth-century Kingdom of Spain.Ian Macpherson is a linguist and literary critic who aims to set his judgements in a historical and social context, and Angus MacKay a historian whose writings are informed by an awareness of the social context and literary production of the Spanish fifteenth century. The two authors have collaborated on many occasions, and the joint volume provides insights into the complex relationships between real life and imaginative writing in this turbulent period of Spanish history.
