Matthew Boyd Goldie & Sebastian Sobecki 
Our Sea of Islands [PDF ebook] 
New Approaches to British Insularity in the Late Middle Ages

поддержка

This book considers how to conceive of the group of islands known in our time as the British Isles in the Late Middle Ages. Was the archipelago considered one geographical unit? Was it an it, or were the islands a they? Singular or plural? Contributions consider possible paths to thinking about late-medieval archipelagism, and in doing so, highlight the inconsistencies and contradictions in medieval (and modern) conceptions of the region.
