Newcastle and Northumberland: Roman and Medieval Architecture and Art (The British Archaeological Association Conference Transactions) - Softcover
Synopsis
The long and vibrant history of north-eastern England has left rich material deposits in the form of buildings, works of art, books and other artefacts. This heritage is examined here in fifteen studies, ranging from the sculpture of the Roman occupation through the monuments and architecture of the Anglo-Saxon and Norman periods, to the manuscripts and fortified houses of the later Middle Ages. The monasteries at Hexham, Lindisfarne and Tynemouth, and the City of Newcastle itself, are all subjected to individual analysis, and there are papers on Alnwick and Warkworth castles, the great keep at Newcastle, the coffin of St Cuthbert and the Lindisfarne Gospels. The expert opinions presented here are intended to stimulate and advance scholarly debate on the material culture of a region which has played a critical role in English history, and whose broad and varied profile still offers many opportunities for critical inquiry.

Review
"...brings together an interesting collection of work on the buildings and archaeology of NE England. The balance of papers is fairly equally spread between castles and churches of the high Middle Ages..." "...offer considerable insight into the self-perception of the Benedictine community." "Far more broad-ranging is Philip Dixon’s paper, usefully mapping the changing types of medieval fortification across the northern counties..." "...the papers are all well written, but clearly aimed at fellow experts..." (Deirdre O’Sullivan Archaeological Journal)
