the medieval Mediterranean: the barbarian migration of the fifth and sixth
centuries, the Arab conquest of the Levant and North Africa in the seventh
and eighth centuries and the Byzantine reaction, and the Norman take-over
and administration of southern Italy in the eleventh and twelfth centuries,
and especially the reign of Roger II. These three events are watersheds -some
more highly recognized than others- that put new peoples in contact and
created the opportunity for the expression of identity in new ways and in new
media.
