"The barbarian law codes, compiled between the sixth to eighth centuries, were copied
remarkably frequently in the Carolingian ninth century. They provide crucial evidence
for early medieval society, including the settlement of disputes, the nature of political
authority, literacy, and the construction of ethnic identities. Yet it has proved
extremely difficult to establish why the codes were copied in the ninth century, how
they were read, and how their rich evidence should be used. Thomas Faulkner tackles
these questions more systematically than ever before, proposing new understandings
of the relationship between the making of law and royal power, and the reading of
law and the maintenance of ethnic identities. Faulkner suggests major reinterpretations
of central texts, including the Carolingian law codes, the capitularies adding to
the laws, and Carolingian revisions of earlier barbarian and Roman laws. He also provides
detailed analysis of legal manuscripts, especially those associated with the 'leges-scriptorium'"
