Early Medieval Europe, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 139-157, May 2025.
Rutilius Namatianus’ poem De reditu suo was written a few years after the devastation of Rome in 410. It has been read as nostalgia for Rome’s past greatness written in a climate of senatorial escapism.

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 183-219, May 2025.

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 543-564, November 2024.

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 57-81, February 2024.
The word cocio (i.e. petty merchant or broker in classical Latin) was a rare term that after a long absence in written Latin reappeared in several Carolingian texts. Scholars have posited a medieval semantic shift from ‘merchant’ to ‘vagabond’. But this article argues that this consensus is erroneous.
