Synopsis
In 1397 the bishop of Hereford toured his diocese asking questions about its churches and people. The answers offer unparalleled insight into social life, sexual behaviour, religious belief, and gender relations during a period of religious and political turmoil, revealing how the clergy were disciplined, how English- and Welsh-speakers interacted, and how the congregation experienced worship. This volume provides a complete scholarly edition, accompanied by a full facing-page translation, introduction and notes.
