Book excerpt: These 12 essays, some taken from a colloquium held in Liverpool in 1998, reflect on the state of Late Medieval France after its long war with England. Although they deal with different aspects of Medieval society, many of them focus on the contribution of contemporary writers for reconstructing this period of history. Political power, authority, court life, war, diplomacy and propaganda are all discussed.
