Weeds And The Carolingians: Empire, Culture, And Nature In Frankish Europe, Ad 750–900

In early medieval Europe, unwanted plants that persistently appeared among crops created extra work, reduced productivity, and challenged theologians who believed God had made all vegetation good. This book presents a dynamic picture of early medieval people struggling to control their ecosystems, and their relationship with their environments.
