Abstract:
The aim of the paper is to set out some preliminary arguments from ongoing research on the application of theories of memory to early medieval mortuary practices. Firstly, the paper discusses the ways in which researchers have previously defined social memory, before attempting a working definition suitable for the study. Secondly, the paper will examine how objects, and specifically portable grave goods, have a part to play in the processes of social memory in a mortuary context. Finally, the paper suggests some ways in which ideas presented in the paper might inform our understanding of early Anglo-Saxon burial practices. The ideas in the paper are expanded upon in the author's doctoral thesis.
