Abstract

Richard Sharpe (1954–2020) was a medieval historian in the broadest sense but also a historian of the book in the broadest sense, and a diplomatist. There were, in addition, many side interests and ‘distractions’, as he called them, some of which culminated in books or (‘What is not a book?’, as he would ask) book-length articles. Here we reflect on his contribution to the fields with which his reputation is most closely associated: the study of early medieval Ireland and the history of the Anglo-Norman realm.
