The Empire of Cnut the Great - Conquest and the Consolidation of Power in Northern Europe in the Early Eleventh Century
The reign of King Cnut the Great (10161035) marks a pivotal point in the history of both England and Scandinavia, yet his conquests and his consolidation of power remain under-appreciated and rarely studied. Almost all existing scholarship has been geographically centred on either England or Scandinavia. However, this study, through a series of studies of individual aspects of his rise to power in those regions, seeks to encompass his entire dominion, and cast new light on our understanding of the nature of this political unit and contemporary figures' conceptions of it.

It traces the development of film from its scientific origins through to cinema today, covering the key elements and players that have contributed to its artistic and technical development.

Griffith and the foundations of Hollywood; experiments in France, Germany, Scandinavia and Russia; the Golden Age of Hollywood; Italian neorealism; diverse developments in the USA, Western and Eastern Europe, Japan, Latin America, China and the Far East.
