Reviews & Quotes
""Taken as a whole, the volume tends more toward the archaeological than the art historical, and in some cases, the presentation of the archaeological evidence obscures the interdisciplinary interests and methods of the papers. Most importantly, however, Berryman, Kerr, and their eight contributors successfully present new avenues through which we can think about medieval buildings, whether they are newly excavated or not.""
The Medieval Review ()
""The papers bring to an English-speaking audience reports of new evidence from areas of which we may be ignorant [...] It also points us to new sources; how can we study 12th-century roofs now without including Swedish churches, or peasant settlements without considering the possibility of widespread eastern European ordering of houses and villages after 1300? The book gives us valuable examples and inspiration.""
