A Descriptive Catalogue of the Medieval Manuscripts in the Library of Peterhouse, Cambridge, by R.M. Thomson
This is the sixth catalogue of historic British collections of medieval manuscripts from the pen of Rodney Thomson, who has thereby become the leading manuscript scholar in this field, as well as the quickest worker, and the true successor of Neil Ker, who raised the art of manuscript cataloguing to a thoroughly professional level. It is also his first of a Cambridge college. The Peterhouse collection of 277 manuscripts, not including fragments t…
Founders and Fellowship
Exeter College was the fourth collegiate foundation at Oxford, and, until the appearance of John Maddicott’s engaging and comprehensive study of its early history, one whose internal development was least well understood, in spite of the rich resource, for historians, of more than two hundred surviving rector’s accounts earlier than 1500. The founder, as with most collegiate founders of the age, was a self-made man whose advancement had been made…

The School of Heretics
Even in the twenty-first century the tension between intellectual speculation and opinions considered dangerous or socially disruptive is not far beneath the surface of public life. Universities, bodies whose members were licensed to explore ideas, have had to struggle hard to maintain their privilege: not least within their own community, the learned being quite as intolerant of one another as any outsider. Before 1277, in the first century of o…

Heresy and Heretics in the Thirteenth Century
This is a book about the idea of heresy conveyed in a series of texts written to refute the beliefs of thirteenth-century Cathars and Waldensians, or to aid proceedings against them. As the direct evidence, in the form of literary remains, of either group is sparse, these texts provide the bulk of information on the subject and their interpretation is therefore the focal point of historical enquiry. Lucy Sackville has worked with Peter Biller on …
Soldiers, Nobles and Gentlemen
The Burden and Conscience of Government in the Fifteenth Century
This study argues that the experience of government, though more clearly articulated after 1400, did not engender realpolitik and made princes and ministers, both the old nobility of service and the newer graduate careerists, more acutely aware of issues of conscience. It traces the anxieties provoked by political experience, their relation to the new spiritual literature addressed to persons with active responsibility, and their resolution after…
A Companion to the Book of Margery Kempe
This collection of essays aims to return the English contemplative Margery Kempe to her historical context, in reaction to a recent tendency to fictionalise her as a mere figure in her Book, whose adventures, like those of Sir John Mandeville, may correspond to no historical reality. That hypercritical stance was never credible: of the many records of personal religious experience written in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, The Book of Mar…
The Franciscans in the Middle Ages
The early history of the Franciscan Order has always attracted controversy, and therefore historians, from the first lives of St Francis onwards: the claim made for it by its wilder enthusiasts but half-believed by many others, that it marked a third dispensation, superseding the Old and New Testaments, ensured that it would be so. Michael Robson has undertaken the task of presenting a sober and unbiased description which incorporates the results…

John Wyclif and the Cult of the Eucharist
The storm centre of John Wyclif’s quarrel with the Church was his doctrine of the Eucharist. The critic of clerical dominion over secular things and of the authority of the pope had passed through ecclesiastical censure almost unscathed; but the proponent of a revisionist theology of the eucharistic sacrament would at once lose the countenance of academic colleagues and public opinion alike, and would suffer the consequences. The crisis of Wyclif…

Ideas and Experience in the Political Thought of Aquinas
This article challenges the conventional view of St. Thomas Aquinas as a purely theoretical political thinker. Catto argues that Aquinas's political thought was deeply informed by his practical experience and the concrete political realities of his time. He demonstrates how Aquinas adapted and applied Aristotelian principles to the specific context of the thirteenth century, addressing issues such as the relationship between church and state, the…
