Its author, a canon of the archdiocese of Hamburg-Bremen, remains an almost anonymous figure but his text is an essential source for the study of the early medieval Baltic. However, despite its undisputed status, past scholarship has tended to treat Adam of Bremen's account as, on the one hand, an historically accurate document, but on the other, a literary artefact containing few, if any, reliable historical facts. The studies collected in this volume investigate the origins and context of the Gesta and will enable researchers to better understand and evaluate the historical veracity of the text.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Grzegorz Bartusik\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032121033\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032121031\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d","brand":"Grzegorz Bartusik","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075485004031,"sku":"9781032121031","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9bd1ffd3-829c-4763-b41b-e62d0d330fd9.jpg?v=1685459699","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/adam-of-bremens-gesta-hammaburgensis-grzegorz-bartusik-9781032121031","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
