Book Kingsford s Stonor Letters and Papers 1290 1483

Download or read book Kingsford s Stonor Letters and Papers 1290 1483 written by Charles Lethbridge Kingsford and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-05-02 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Stonor letters and papers form one of only three surviving archives of gentry correspondence from late medieval England. The collection - which includes documents ranging from love letters to household accounts - provides us with a wealth of otherwise unobtainable detail about the lives and careers of a gentry family, their servants and their friends. Much of the material comes from the period of the Wars of the Roses, and allows us an insider's view on national events and the people involved in them. Originally edited by the historian C. L. Kingsford at the beginning of the century, the complete collection is reissued here, with a new introduction and annotation by Christine Carpenter. In many ways more representative of gentry life than the Paston letters, the Stonor letters and papers will be invaluable to scholars of late medieval England, and will make fascinating reading for anyone interested in the Wars of the Roses or life in medieval England.
