Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Guilds of England These Frith Guilds held monthly meetings with a feast, the remains of which were given to the poor; and on the death of a member each brother gave a loaf for the benefit of the Guild, and sang fifty psalms, or paid someone else to do so. Each member also contributed fourpence towards a fund to reimburse mem bers from accidental losses, and one shilling each when a thief was to be caught. The ranks of the members were divided into bodies of ten each, and 100 seems to have constituted a company under an acknowledged leader.

Download or read book Two Chapters on the Medieval Guilds of England Classic Reprint written by Edwin Robert Anderson Seligman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Chapters on the Medieval Guilds of England This essay was originally written in 1882-3 as a doctor's dissertation in the School of Political Sci ence, Columbia College. It is here reprinted in its original form. With a few additions and alterations, mainly of a verbal nature. This explains the lack of all reference to publications of the past four years. The monograph is only a condensed fragment of a much larger work. Already partly in manuscript, which is to treat of the social history of England to the present time. The press of other occupations has compelled me to lay it aside for several years, but at some future day I trust to continue my inves tigations in England itself, and to complete the task that has been marked out.

Download or read book The Meaning of Media written by Anna Catharina Horn and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-05-10 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book highlights aspects of mediality and materiality in the dissemination and distribution of texts in the Scandinavian Middle Ages important for achieving a general understanding of the emerging literate culture. In nine chapters various types of texts represented in different media and in a range of materials are treated. The topics include two chapters on epigraphy, on lead amulets and stone monuments inscribed with runes and Roman letters. In four chapters aspects of the manuscript culture is discussed, the role of authorship and of the dissemination of Christian topics in translations. The appropriation of a Latin book culture in the vernaculars is treated as well as the adminstrative use of writing in charters. In the two final chapters topics related to the emerging print culture in early post-medieval manuscripts and prints are discussed with a focus on reception. The range of topics will make the book relevant for scholars from all fields of medieval research as well as those interested in mediality and materiality in general.
