This book was released on 2013-08-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Corporation of London has an extensive collection of medieval records which can be used to trace the development of the City, and provide much information of all aspects of civic life - social, economic, political, ecclesiastical, legal and military. H. T. Riley (1816-78) spent many years editing and translating some of the most significant documents, and thereby establishing his scholarly reputation. Volume 1 of this three-volume work, published in 1859, contains one of the most important collections of documents, the four books of the Liber Albus. This was compiled in 1419 by the Town Clerk, John Carpenter, and is considered one of the first books of English common law. It records the laws and civic regulations relating to the City of London, beginning in 1067 but concentrating on the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. It is written mostly in Latin, with parts in French.

D., 1419 From these same records too - seeing that there was hardly a dealing between man and man, however trivial, that was not interfered with by sumptuary laws (many of them of absurd, almost grotesque, form and shape) hardly a transaction or existing relation in private life that was not the subject of legal enactment and civic surveillance we m ay become more intimately acquainted with the early form and subsequent development of our municipal institutions the principles and growth of taxation in this country; the mediaeval relations of prices and labour the remote history of trades, guilds and mysteries the progress of arts, manufactures, and commerce; the gradual expansion of our national wealth and the history of the manners, usages, habits, and opinions, of our impulsive forefathers. A. Very considerable amount of information may also be gathered from these documents in reference to our genealogical history, and certain indications may be derived from them, perhaps incidentally rather than otherwise, rela tive to various points connected with the progress of religious opinion and belief.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2004 announcement that Chaucer's scribe had been discovered resulted in a paradigm shift in medieval studies. Adam Pynkhurst dominated the classroom, became a fictional character, and led to suggestions that this identification should prompt the abandonment of our understanding of the development of London English and acceptance that the clerks of the Guildhall were promoting vernacular literature as part of a concerted political program. In this meticulously researched study, Lawrence Warner challenges the narratives and conclusions of recent scholarship. In place of the accepted story, Warner provides a fresh, more nuanced one in which many more scribes, anonymous ones, worked in conditions we are only beginning to understand. Bringing to light new information, not least, hundreds of documents in the hand of one of the most important fifteenth-century scribes of Chaucer and Langland, this book represents an important intervention in the field of Middle English studies.
