Abstract

Catalog for an exhibition held Oct. 10, 2008 through Jan. 18, 2009 at the Musée national d'histoire et d'art, Luxembourg, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the Machtum treasure, a Late Roman hoard of gold coins and medals uncovered in 1958 during dredging of the Moselle River between Ahn and Machtum on the Germany-Luxembourg border. The Museum meticulously set about reassembling the Machtum treasure which had been dispersed on the international art market immediately after its discovery. In addition to the Machtum treasure, the exhibition includes 12 other treasures, comparable to that found at Machtum.

Abstract

The profound changes that took place between 800 and 1100 in the transition from Carolingian to post-Carolingian Europe have long been the subject of vigorous historical controversy. Looking beyond the notion of a 'Feudal Revolution', this book reveals that a radical shift in the patterns of social organisation did occur in this period, but as a continuation of processes unleashed by Carolingian reform, rather than Carolingian political failure. Focusing on the Frankish lands between the rivers Marne and Moselle, Charles West explores the full range of available evidence, including letters, chronicles, estate documents, archaeological excavations and liturgical treatises, to track documentary and social change. He shows how Carolingian reforms worked to formalise interaction across the entire social spectrum, and that the new political and social formations apparent from the later eleventh century should be seen as long-term consequence of this process.
