Abstract

‘... Professor Clarke was cavalier with the facts. Oswald’s army was Anglian, not Saxon;* its Welsh enemies were Christians not pagans; the battle was fought not at Heavenfield but several miles away;* and it took place in the Winter of 634-5 not 642. Her ‘vocantur’ is a mistake for Bede’s vocatur. Battles and Latin grammar are not the strong point of Catherine Clarke, or (it seems) of Southampton University, where she now has a Chair of English.’ (p. 80: asterisks added)

书评：英国战役493-937。Andrew Breeze的《巴登山到布鲁南布尔》

'。。。克拉克教授对事实漠不关心。奥斯瓦尔德的军队是盎格鲁人，而不是撒克逊人；*其威尔士敌人是基督徒而非异教徒；这场战斗不是在海文菲尔德，而是在几英里外；*它发生在634-5年的冬天，而不是642年。她的“vocatur”是贝德的vocatur的一个错误。战斗和拉丁语法不是凯瑟琳·克拉克的强项，也不是南安普顿大学的强项，她现在在那里担任英语教授（第80页：添加星号）

期刊介绍： War in History journal takes the view that military history should be integrated into a broader definition of history, and benefits from the insights provided by other approaches to history. Recognising that the study of war is more than simply the study of conflict, War in History embraces war in all its aspects: > Economic > Social > Political > Military Articles include the study of naval forces, maritime power and air forces, as well as more narrowly defined military matters. There is no restriction as to period: the journal is as receptive to the study of classical or feudal warfare as to Napoleonic. This journal provides you with a continuous update on war in history over many historical periods.
