Yet Southern Italy in the ninth and tenth centuries was a complex and vibrant world that deserves to be better understood. In \u003ci\u003eBefore the Normans\u003c\/i\u003e, Barbara M. Kreutz writes the first modern study in English of the land, political structures, and cultures of southern Italy in the two centuries before the Norman conquests. This was a pan-Meditteranean society, where the Roman past and Lombard-Germanic culture met Byzantine and Islamic civilization, creating a rich and unusual mix.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara M.
