At the same time, contemporaries began celebrating the wit, humour, and laughter of King Henry II (r.1154-89) and his martyred Archbishop of Canterbury, Saint Thomas Becket (d.1170). Taking a broad genealogical approach, 'Laughter and Power in the Twelfth Century' traces the emergence of this powerful laughter through an immersive study of medieval intellectual, literary, social, religious, and political debates. Focusing on a cultural renaissance in England, the study situates laughter at the heart of the defining transformations of the second half of the 1100s. 000916739 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on November 19, 2019). 000916739 60000 $$aHenry$$bII,$$cKing of England,$$d1133-1189. 000916739 650_0 $$aLaughter$$xPolitical aspects$$zEngland$$xHistory$$yTo 1500. 000916739 650_0 $$aPower (Social sciences)$$zEngland$$xHistory$$yTo 1500. 000916739 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xHistory$$yHenry II, 1154-1189. 000916739 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xHistory$$yNorman period, 1066-1154. 000916739 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9780198843542 000916739 830_0 $$aOxford scholarship online. 000916739 85280 $$bebk$$hOxford Scholarship Online 000916739 85640 $$3Oxford scholarship online$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198843542.001.0001$$zOnline Access 000916739 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:916739$$pGLOBAL_SET 000916739 980__ $$aEBOOK 000916739 980__ $$aBIB 000916739 982__ $$aEbook 000916739 983__ $$aOnline
