Description
The Goths: A New Vision of Gothic Identity This volume explores the complex history of the Goths, tracing their development from early beginnings to the fall of their successor states. Peter Heather presents a fresh perspective on Gothic society, examining the social caste that defined and transmitted this identity. The book is divided into three parts, each covering a distinct phase in Gothic history: their early years, the impact of the Huns, and the legacy of the western Roman Empire. By examining these periods, Heather sheds new light on the nature of Gothic identity and its enduring presence in European history.
