Literacy in Lombard Italy, c.568–774 (Cambridge Studies in Medieval Life and Thought: Fourth Series, Series Number 53) - Softcover
This book examines the evidence for literacy in early medieval Italy under the rule of the Lombards, the last of the barbarian invaders who established a kingdom in north and central Italy from 568 to 774. By examining different kinds of written documentation (legislation, charters, inscriptions and manuscripts), the study reveals that Lombard Italy actually possessed a relatively sophisticated written culture prior to the so-called Carolingian Renaissance of the ninth century.

Book Description:
This book examines the evidence for literacy in early medieval Italy under the rule of the Lombards, the last of the barbarian invaders who established a kingdom in north and central Italy from 568 to 774, a period usually considered as the darkest of the Dark Ages. By examining different kinds of written evidence--legislation, charters, inscriptions and manuscripts--the book shows that Lombard Italy in fact possessed a relatively sophisticated written culture prior to the so-called Carolingian Renaissance of the ninth century.
