{"product_id":"thomas-becket-anne-duggan-9780340741382","title":"Thomas Becket","description":"The construction and deconstruction of Becket's reputation is central to this provocative new study. The cult of Becket has remained enduring: it was the centerpiece of Chaucer's \u003cem\u003eCanterbury Tales\u003c\/em\u003e; and in our own time it has carried powerful enough resonance to generate interpretations from T.S. Eliot, Jean Anouilh, and indeed Hollywood. This book investigates whether the popular conception of Becket through the ages is a result of valid assessments of the man and his cause, or a product of a carefully constructed myth, and how far can one correct for the bias and reach the truth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anne Duggan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0340741384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780340741382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hodder Education Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnne Duggan is Professor of History at King's College London\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anne Duggan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43913738813695,"sku":"9780340741382","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b085d844-4a8b-477f-8e79-232c2d8b9233.jpg?v=1680621942","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thomas-becket-anne-duggan-9780340741382","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
