Show Notes
This episode I wanted to look back at where we have been from the perspective of the high-water mark of Anglo-Saxon history that was the reign of Edgar. In this retrospective analysis, I want to consider some aspects of ‘history from below’ that were not focused on as much in earlier episodes, specifically the economic base of society, slavery, and the position of women in Anglo-Saxon society.

More from Anglo-Saxon England
I recently became a dad for the first time and the needs of caring for a newborn have moved podcast production back slightly. To make up for it I am releasing here a Patreon exclusive episode: Anglo-Saxon Paganism - Redux. In the years since my first look at Anglo-Saxon paganism, my thinking on the topic has changed somewhat to the point that I wanted to look at it again. The result is, I feel, more detailed and informative.
