As broad in scope as the interests of its honoree, this volume brings

together leading historians of early English and continental law to pay

tribute to Lisi Oliver. The essays gathered here range from the earliest

laws of the kings of Kent in the seventh century to the reception of Old

English law in the seventeenth. Interested both in how law was made and

the ways in which it was applied, the contributors explore the careers

of such prominent legislators as Alfred the Great and Wulfstan of York

while also examining issues of gender, social status and textual

transmission. This volume will be essential reading for anyone

interested in the history of law, the legal culture of Anglo-Saxon

England, and the emergence of modern concepts of self and statehood in

the early Middle Ages.
