Cooking and Dining in Medieval England
by Peter Brears
The history of medieval food and cookery has received a fair amount of attention from the point of view of recipes (of which many survive) and of the general context of feasts and feasting. It has never, as yet, been studied with an eye to the real mechanics of food production and service: the equipment used, the household organisation, the architectural arrangements for kitchens, store-rooms, pantries, larders, cellars, and domestic ...

Medieval Landscapes
edited by Mark Gardiner and Stephen Rippon
The medieval period was at the centre of W G Hoskins concerns: the period when his 'palimpsest' of the English landscape was, if not quite wiped clean, very thoroughly overwritten. The essays here demonstrate how researchers have moved beyond issues of describing and 'reading' the landscape to address the social and ideological - as well as economic - functions of landscapes, and to seek explanations for regional difference. 287p, 67 ...

West Cotton, Raunds: A Study of Medieval Settlement Dynamics AD 450-1450. Excavation of a deserted medieval hamlet in Northamptonshire, 1985-89
by Andy Chapman
The open area excavation of nearly one-half of the small deserted medieval hamlet of West Cotton, Raunds, Northamptonshire has revealed the dynamic processes of constant development in a way that has rarely been achieved on other comparable sites in England. Its origins have been seen to lie in the mid- tenth-century plantation of a planned settlement based on regular one-acre plots, which occurred within the political context of the reconquest ...

The North Through its Names: A Phenomenology of Medieval and Early-Modern Northern England
by Dave Postles
This volume in the English Surnames Survey series looks at the north of England. The definition of what constitutes 'the north' is dependent on a number of variables social, political, cultural, geographic and linguistic. Allied to this, is an understanding that there was a consciousness of northern-ness, both inside and outside its parameters, based on these criteria. The personal names from the north during the ...

Vicars Choral at English Cathedrals: Cantate Domino: History, Architecture And Archaeology
edited by Richard Hall and David Stocker
Staffing medieval cathedrals was always a problem. Some English cathedrals introduced monks, but almost half of them put themselves in the hands of secular priests (canons). As cathedrals became complex 'prayer factories' between the 12th and 16th centuries, the canons appointed Vicars Choral to perform liturgical functions in their stead. From the moment of their first appearance in the 12th century, there was concern about the vicars' ...

Medieval Villages in an English Landscape
by Richard Jones and Mark Page
The village one of the keystones of the English rural landscape - has a powerful hold on the imagination. The origin of nucleated and dispersed settlements - the countryside of villages and the countryside of hamlets has consequently become a central concern of landscape historians.
Between AD 500 and 1700, a series of revolutions transformed the structure of the South West Peninsulas rural landscape. The book tells the story of these ...

Medieval money matters
edited by Diana Wood
If there is a central theme of this volume, it is the supply of money in circulation, rather than the importance of money, per se. It was this circulation that determined the movement of prices, of trade, and of credit - in short, it was this that underpinned the commercialisation of the economy, and therefore was the most important medieval money matter.(Oxbow Books 2004)

Credit and Debt in Medieval England c.1180-c.1350
edited by P R Schofield and N J Mayhew
The essays in this volume look at the mechanics of debt, the legal process, and its economics in early medieval England.

The transactions and those who conducted them moved between social and economic worlds; merchants and traders, clerics and Jews, extending and receiving credit to ...
