Hardcover. Condition: Fair. 1981 Oxford University Press hardcover edition. Ex library copy with stamps and labels else good condition. From the dustjacket: Sir Richard Southern was a fellow and tutor of Balliol College, Oxford, from 1937 to 1961, Chichele Professor of Modern History from 1961 to 1969, and since 1969 has been President of St. John's College, Oxford. In this book will be found seventeen essays by his old pupils on various aspects of a subject which he made particularly his own, The Writing of History in the Middle Ages. Ranging from the eighth century to the fifteenth, and from Scotland to Byzantium, the essays illustrate both the unity and the breadth of Sir Richard's teaching. Norman and Anglo-Norman historians (from Worcester to Bec-Hellouin, and Bec-Hellouin to Salerno) receive special attention, but there are also studies of confession and sermons as historical sources; of legal history and chivalrous history; of German town chroniclers; and of the biographer of King Henry VI. All these essays are original contributions to their subject, containing new material, and in several cases preparing the ground for new editions. In some measure they illustrate the combination of profound scholarship, sympathetic understanding, and literary form which are the hallmarks of Sir Richard's own work.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1996 OUP hardcover edition. Ex library copy with stamps and labels else good condition. From the dustjacket: The records of manorial courts have been used increasingly as the principal source for the reconstruction of rural and small town society in Medieval England. They offer a unique source with which to investigate peasant demography, family patterns, the village community and economy, the characteristics and instruments of customary law and the ways in which that law was perceived and exploited by landlords and tenants. The essays in this collection provide novel approaches to all of these themes and are written by many of the historians who have pioneered the use of this source category in the last two decades. In two introductory chapters, the editors review the historiography of manorial court rolls and account for their origins as a distinctive record of customary law within the broad context of medieval European society. A valuable appendix contains an inventory of the most comprehensive manorial court roll series arranged systematically on a county-to-county basis, detailing the repository in which they are located. This book will serve as an essential reference tool for any serious study of medieval English rural society. Contents: 1. The Origins of the English Manorial Court Rolls as a Written Record: A Puzzle; 2. What did Edwardian Villagers Understand by Law?; 3. What did English Villagers Mean by 'Customary Law'?; 4. The Development of Deathbed Transfers in Medieval English Manor Courts; 5. Charitable Bequests, Deathbed Land Sales, and the Manor Court in Later Medieval England; 6. Politics in Manorial Court Rolls: The Tactics, Social Composition, and Aims of a pre-1381 Peasant Movement; 7. Merton College's Control of its Tenants at Thorncroft, 1270-1349; 8. The Dyffryn Clwyd Court Roll Project, 1340-1352 and 1389-1399: A Methodology and Some Preliminary Findings; 9. The Population History of Medieval English Villages: A Debate on the Use of Manor Court Records; 10.
