Die Ethnogenese des englischen Volkes

This work manages to breathe new life into the old concept of ethnogenesis research and the associated linking of various modern research disciplines on culture, religion and language by drawing on the results of the latest genetic research on the history of the origin of the English people. In doing so, ethnogenetic processes in England from the original population of the British Isles up to and including the Norman Conquest are analysed, their effects evaluated, and the influence of the Anglo-Saxons and Celts judged to be greatest. It also highlights the applicability of ethnogenesis research today and the extent to which advances in genetics enrich it.
