Using Concepts in Medieval HistoryPerspectives on Britain and Ireland, 1100–1500 /[electronic resource] :edited by Jackson W. Armstrong, Peter Crooks, Andrea Ruddick. - 1st ed. 2022. - XI, 201 p. 1 illus.online resource.

Part I -- 1. ‘Tyrannous Constructs’ or Tools of The Trade? The Use and Abuse of Concepts in Medieval History - Jackson W. Armstrong, Peter Crooks, Andrea Ruddick -- 2. Feudalism: Reflections on a Tyrannical Construct’s Fate, from Paradigm to Personae - E.A.R. Brown -- Part II -- 3. Colony - Peter Crooks -- 4. Crisis - Carl Watkins -- 5. Frontier - Jackson W. Armstrong -- 6. Identity - Andrea Ruddick -- 7. Magic - Sophie Page -- 8. Networks - Eliza Hartrich -- 9. Politics - Chris Fletcher -- Part III -- 10. Reflections on Using Concepts - John Watts.

This book is the first of its kind to engage explicitly with the practice of conceptual history as it relates to the study of the Middle Ages, exploring the pay-offs and pitfalls of using concepts in medieval history. Concepts are indispensable to historians as a means of understanding past societies, but those concepts conjured in an effort to bring order to the infinite complexity of the past have a bad habit of taking on a life of their own and inordinately influencing historical interpretation. The most famous example is ‘feudalism’, whose fate as a concept is reviewed here by E.A.R. Brown nearly fifty years after her seminal article on the topic. The volume’s contributors offer a series of case studies of other concepts – 'colony', 'crisis', 'frontier', 'identity', 'magic', 'networks' and 'politics' – that have been influential, particularly among historians of Britain and Ireland in the later Middle Ages. The book explores the creative friction between historical ideas and analytical categories, and the potential for fresh and meaningful understandings to emerge from their dialogue.
