International Politics, Arms Policy and Medieval Religiosity in the Battle of Hastings, in the light of the Bayeux Tapestry

This article refers to a study on medieval politics seen from the so-called Bayeux tapestry, which shows us the feats that surrounded the conquest of England by the Normans, an event that marked medieval politics, which is externalized in the work of art, to show posterity the warlike practice that was carried out by both the Norman and Saxon armies. All these events are reflected by the artists and artisans under scenes and inscriptions, which point to a very particular international and arms policy, under the religious interference of the time.
