Almshouses in Early Modern England: Charitable Housing in the Mixed Economy of Welfare, 1550–1725, by Angela Nicholls
This book by Angela Nicholls seeks to demonstrate the part that almshouses played in the mixed economy of welfare in the early modern period. It draws upon detailed analyses of almshouse provision in the three contrasting counties of Durham, Warwickshire and Kent, and includes a micro-study of the role of the almshouse in the welfare republic of Leamington Hastings in Warwickshire. There is some impressive use of record linkage to shed light on t…
Years of Royal Historical Society Publishing
The 150th anniversary of the Royal Historical Society offers an opportunity for an investigation into its publications over the longue durée . Its slow transformation from an association of literary dilettanti to a body of professional historians in the period 1890–1910 was accompanied by changes to its publication programme: the appointment of a literary director, an improvement in the quality of papers read, the merger with the Camden Society a…

Records of Early English Drama: Civic London to 1558, ed. Anne Lancashire
Previous volumes in this remarkable series have already covered the records of parishes and of the diocese of London, and of the inns of court. Now Anne Lancashire has edited the relevant records from the city government and from the livery companies. But, whereas the predecessor volumes took the story up to 1640, the sheer volume of material means that her labours come to an end in 1558, and one has to wonder how the project will cope with the e…

The Oxford Handbook of Holinshed's Chronicles
The Chronicles of England, Scotland, and Ireland (1577, 1587), issued under the name of Raphael Holinshed, was the crowning achievement of Tudor historiography, and became the principal source for the historical writings of Spenser, Daniel and, above all, Shakespeare. While scholars have long been drawn to Holinshed for its qualities as a source, they typically dismissed it as a baggy collection of materials, lacking coherent form and analytical …

The Charity of Early Modern Londoners
This essay explores further the notion associated with W. K. Jordan that a new rational protestant philanthropy emerged after the Reformation. Drawing upon a sample of London wills from the period 1520-1640, it argues that protestants sought to forge an association between protestantism and charity, but suggests that there were rather more continuities with the catholic past than the polemics of the early reformers would leave one to believe. It …

The Burden of Taxation on Sixteenth-Century London
This article seeks to establish the burden of direct taxation in the city of London in the sixteenth century. Previous discussions have been confined to the yield of parliamentary subsidies which cannot give a full picture because of the way responsibility for equipping military levies was increasingly devolved on to the locality. Estimates of the costs of the various additional military levies are therefore made. Innovations in parliamentary tax…

The Pursuit of Stability: Social Relations in Elizabethan London
This work engages in the historical debate about the reasons for London's freedom from serious unrest in the later sixteenth century, when the city's rulers faced mounting problems caused by rapid population growth, spiralling prices, impoverishment and crime. One key to the city's stability was that Londoners were locked into a matrix of overlapping communities, the livery companies, wards and parishes, all of which created claims on their loyal…
