The book elaborates new interpretative paradigms, drawing on the work of continental scholars and literary critics, and on complementing interdisciplinary scholarship of medieval imaginary spaces and their representations. It gathers evidence from both Old English verse and historico-geographical documents, and focuses on the juncture between traditional scientific learning and the symbolic values attributed to space and orientation. Combining close reading with an original theoretical model, \u003cem\u003eCreation, Migration, and Conquest\u003c\/em\u003e offers innovative interpretations of celebrated texts and highlights the links between place, identity, and collective identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fabienne Michelet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 019928671X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199286713\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.70w x 1.00d","brand":"Fabienne Michelet","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47419023032575,"sku":"9780199286713","price":245.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9389b46b-5afc-44cf-a655-3a53d81d7cda.jpg?v=1761508972","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/creation-migration-and-conquest-fabienne-michelet-9780199286713","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
