How long did people live in the middle ages?1 To this intriguing question any sort of systematic answer is, and is certain to remain, beyond us. The mediaeval mind, curious and ingenious enough when applied to issues of contemporary concern, threw up a complete blank regarding those forms of knowledge or data which lend themselves to statistical presentation. Generalizations were based on impressions or hypotheses. People in the middle ages simpl…

Aristocratic marriage and the English peerage, 1350–1500
Marriage was obviously an important institution to the late medieval aristocracy. Almost all of the peers between 1350 and 1500 married: all but seven did so at least once, and 144 of the 424 peers (or 34 percent) married two or more times. Since marriages were for political and economic reasons, as much or more than for personal ones, we find that many of them were contracted within the forbidden degrees of kinship and affinity, by dint of an ec…
Wealth and Philanthropy in Late Medieval England
The Universities and the Medieval English Nobility
HISTORIANS HAVE TRADITIONALLY built the early modemrn English state on two planks. One was that of a so-called learning, renaissance humanism, coming into England shortly before hops and reformation. The entry of this learning has been pushed back into the fifteenth century, (X) and some have even been so discourteous as to cast aspersions upon its value. (2) Yet it continues to attract scholarly attention. The other plank of the old orthodoxy wa…
The Assizes of Weights and Measures in Medieval England
The Assizes of Weights and Measures in Medieval England
ALL COMMERCE depends upon uniform standards of weights and measures. Without such standards there can be no definite commercial order, nor will transactions inspire the confidence that must precede trade and banking. The assizes of weights and measures and of victuals were a general code, not a specific legislative act, which grew up in medieval England, standardizing weights and measures, and governing the quantity and quality of food.' Enactmen…
Marriage and the Blood Feud in 'Heroic' Europe
The King’s “Wicked Advisers” and Medieval Baronial Rebellions
These then roughly speaking are the starting points and sources of factions, which give rise to party strife, and revolutions due to this take place in two ways: sometimes they are in regard to the constitution, and aim at changing from the one established to another ... but sometimes the revolution is not in regard to the established constitution, but its promoters desire the same form of government, for instance oligarchy or monarchy, but wish …

The fifteenth-century episcopate
In this paper I wish to show a possible line of relationship between the careers of some fifteenth-century English bishops and their deathbed bequests. This attempt to correlate episcopal secularity, as revealed by the ‘careerism’ of the bishops, and episcopal sanctity, as revealed by their philanthropy, touches three major themes of historical inquiry. One of these is gift-giving. Anthropologists have taught us to see how the giving of gifts in …

Bede's Ecclesiastical History and the Material Conditions of Anglo-Saxon Life
The author of the Ecclesiastical History of the English People was the greatest historian writing in the West between the later Roman Empire and the twelfth century, when we come to William of Malmesbury, Otto of Freising, and William of Tyre. Bede's qualities as a historian are well known and widely appreciated, and they need no further exposition here. Instead, we propose to be perverse and to attempt to read Bede's text as though he had been a…

A Historiographical Survey
Three points by way of introduction. The first concerns the definition and delineation of the subject. Because kingship is but one ill-defined kingdom in the shifting intellectual heptarchy of Anglo-Saxon scholarship, I have been rigorous almost to the point of ruthlessness about excluding topics just at or beyond our boundaries. Not only scholarly contributions and scholars but also whole fields and subfields of historical inquiry have been prec…
