A series of introductory chapters explore such topics as the history of previous scholarship, the geological and historical background, plus a detailed analysis of the new information afforded by these major survivals of Anglo-Saxon art and archaeology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStocker and Everson conclude that the great majority of stone sculpture from these two counties belongs to the final century of Anglo-Saxon England, during which period they were rapidly expanding ecclesiastical societies, and deeply influenced by the great monasteries of Peterborough and Ely. The quantity of eleventh-century material permits an analysis of the impact of the Norman conquest on aspects of social, ecclesiastical, and cultural life, which is a running theme through the narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"British Academy","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47779511304343,"sku":"9780197267561","price":17853.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780197267561.webp?v=1778037111","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/cambridgeshire-and-huntingdonshire-9780197267561","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
