Synopsis
Excerpt from The Domesday Inquest
Above all, I have tried to make Domesday Book its own interpreter, and to exhaust its evidence and that of its subsidiary documents, before having recourse to evidence of other periods. This book is therefore a study of existing institutions, rather than an inquiry into their history.

It deciphers the statistics within the book, which provide a valuable insight into the social, economic, and political structure of 11th century England. The author examines the Domesday Book's methodology, focusing on the questions posed to the original jurors, and analyzes their answers to glean insights into the nature of institutions and societal classes that existed at the time. By comparing the data it contains from two distinct periods (pre- and post-Conquest), the author sheds light on the lasting societal changes brought about by the Norman Conquest.
