| Description: |
An important collection of essays on the subjects of kingship, lordship, warfare and sanctity, penned by the highly respected historian of late medieval England, the late Professor Simon Walker -- . |
| Synopsis: |
This is an important collection of pioneering essays penned by the late Simon Walker, a highly respected historian of late medieval England.One of the finest scholars of his generation, Walker's writing is lucid, inspirational, and has permanently enriched our understanding of the period. The eleven essays featured here examine themes such as kingship, lordship, warfare and sanctity. There are specific studies on subjects such as the changing fortunes of the family of Sir Richard Abberbury; Yorkshire's Justices of the Peace; the service of medieval man-at-arms, Janico Dartasso; Richard II's views on kingship, political saints, and an investigation of rumour, sedition and popular protest in the reign of Henry IV.An introduction by G.L. Harriss looks back across Walker's career, and discusses the historiographical context of his work. Both the new and previously published pieces here will be essential reading for those working on the late medieval period. -- . |
