Book Synopsis Angels on the Edge of the World by : Kathy Lavezzo
Book excerpt: In a view that sweeps from the tenth century to the mid 16th century, this text shows how the English people's concern with their island's relative isolation on the global map contributed to the emergence of a distinctive English national consciousness in which marginality came to be seen as a virtue.
