Its thematic structure creates a dialogue between texts and regions traditionally studied in isolation. Part 1 (Regions) introduces the corpus of origin texts from the areas under this volume's purview. Part 2 (Themes) identifies key themes that appear in origin legends and introduces new arguments on a wide range of early medieval material. The chapters in Part 3 (Approaches) conclude the volume by highlighting a range of disciplinary, methodological, and theoretical approaches to origin legends"--  |c Provided by publisher.
