Abstract

This session explores the intersections between networks and identities in the Carolingian world. The three papers - which comprise a range of different regional contexts, methodological approaches, and types of evidence - address the following questions: how far did networks adhere to, or cut across, the labels and identifications that we use to approach individuals in this period? How does the Carolingian world look when we take as central connections between individuals rather than the categories of the individuals?
