Book Synopsis The Transformation of Frontiers from Late Antiquity to the Carolingians by : Walter Pohl
Book excerpt: As the Roman empire was transformed, the meaning and impact of frontiers changed as the new Gothic, Lombard and Frankish kingdoms, as well as the empire as a whole, sought to define their realms, control movements, establish exchange networks and give their frontiers a Christian significance.
