Thirteenth century England 14
Inhalt:
The articles collected here reflect the continued and wide interest in England and its neighbours in the years between Magna Carta and the Black Death, with many of them particularly seeking to set England in its European context. There are three main strands to the volume. The first is the social dimension of power, and the norms and practice of politics: attention is drawn to the variety of roles open to members of the clergy, but also peasants and townsmen, and the populace at large. Several chapters explore the manifestations and instruments of social identity, such as the seals used by the leading elites of thirteenth-century London, and the marriage practices of the English aristocracy. The third main focus is the uses of the past. Matthew Paris, the most famous chronicler of the period, receives due attention, in particular his changing attitude towards the monarch, but the Vita Edwardi Secundi's portrayal of Thomas of Lancaster and the Anglo-Norman Prose Brut are also considered. Janet Burton is Professor of Medieval History at University of Wales: Trinity Saint David; Phillipp Schofield is Professor of Medieval History at Aberystwyth University; BjoÌrn Weiler is Professor of History at Aberystwyth University. Contributors: J.R. Maddicott, Philllipp Schofield, Harmony Dewez, John McEwan, JoÌrg Peltzer, Karen StoÌber, Olga Cecilia MeÌ#x81;ndez GonzaÌ#x81;lez, Sophie Ambler, Joe Creamer, Lars Kj℗♭¿'r, Andrew Spencer, Julia Marvin, Olivier de Laborderie
