Unlearned monsters: An archaeology of the Gothic romance
Abstract
dc:description"Lexical politics during the Roman Empire and German Reformation, errors in translating Bede into Anglo-Saxon, and stylistic compatibilities between gothic racial myth and ""customary"" politics mythologized the barbarians who ""invaded"" Kent in 449 as native Goths whose return to their homeland redeemed its ""immemorial"" customs of political liberty and spiritual purity."
