This history of Spain in the period between the end of Roman rule
and the time of the Arab conquest challenges many traditional

governed, about law in the kingdom, about the Arab conquest, and
about the rise of Spain as an intellectual force.
- Takes account of new documentary evidence, the latest
archaeological findings, and the controversies that these have
generated.
- Combines chronological and thematic approaches to the
period.
- A historiographical introduction looks at the current state of research on the history and archaeology of the Visigothic kingdom.
