The concept of peasantry and the study of Anglo-Saxon England: germanist disputes
Main Article Content
Abstract
The current article aims to discuss the concept of peasantry on Anglo-Saxon England, and how this concept is moulded by the debates about Germanic societies. Such debates started on the 19th Century and are filled by nationalist elements; each country projecting on the Middle Ages their national and ethnic and/or racial origins. The main hypothesis of the article is that the concept of peasantry and (more broadly) the vision of Anglo-Saxon society embodies a liberal Germanist point-of-view, which emerged by opposition of the Nazi formulation of German societies in the past.
