Forty years' research into the straight two-edged knightly sword of the European middle ages, presented according to Oakeshott's pioneering typological framework.
This book represents the culmination of forty years of intensive research into the specialised subject of the straight two-edged knightly sword of the European middle ages, spanning the period from the great migrations to the Renaissance.Ewart Oakeshott's characteristic blend of scholarship and accessibility has always been a hallmark of his work. Here he presents his material in a direct person-to-person style of comment and observation, emphasising the original purpose of the living sword as an intensely intimate accessory of great significance and mystique as well as an important artefact for archaeological examination.
This study includes over 300 photographs and drawings of swords, each fully annotated and described in detail, supported by an introductory chapter which includes diagrams of his invaluable typological framework.EWART OAKESHOTT's lifelong passion has been swords, and he has written two important books about them: The Archaeology of Weapons and The Sword in the Age of Chivalry.
