About this product
Product Information
In Caring for Body and Soul , Bonnie Effros reveals the social significance of burial rites in early medieval Europe during the time of the Merovingian (or so-called long-haired) kings from 500 to 800 C.E. Effros uses a wide range of historical and archaeological evidence that few other scholars have mastered.

Reviews
"Minor criticisms (and they are minor) aside, this is a very valuable book. It deserves a wide readership and will be very useful for teaching. Above all, it is to be hoped that archaeologist of Ango-Saxon England read it." -Guy Halsall, History, "A very thorough and up-to-date study of death and burial in early medieval society." --Guy Halsall, Birkbeck College, University of London, "A very thorough and up-to-date study of death and burial in early medieval society." -Guy Halsall, Birkbeck College, University of London, &"Effros has produced a well-written and well-researched book, which will serve as an excellent introduction to anyone approaching the topic of early-medieval funerary rituals for the first time.&" &-Cristina La Rocca, Speculum: A Journal of Medieval Studies, "I find much to praise in this book and nothing with which I sharply disagree." "So, then, this is a good book." --Thomas F.X. Noble Spiritus, "These reservations aside, this is an important book that will be extremely useful for both students and scholars interested in the topic.
