Beschreibung:
Kenneth Baxter Wolf was educated at Stanford University, where he received his B.A. degree in religious studies and his Ph.D. degree in history. He is the author of Christian Martyrs in Muslim Spain and Making History: The Normans and Their Historians in Eleventh-Century Italy, available from the University of Pennsylvania Press. He is Associate Professor of History at Pomona College in Claremont, California.
From the perspective of the Hispano-Romans, the Visigoths who invaded Spain in the midfifth century were heretical barbarians. But Leovigild's military success and Reccared's conversion to Catholic Christianity led to more positive assessments of the Gothic role in Iberian history.
