Opis

This is a major new edition of the letters written and received between 1162 and 1170 by Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury and victim of the 'murder in the cathedral'. It takes the reader to the very heart of the great dispute that rocked the English kingdom in the twelfth century.

Recenzje

Oxford Medieval Texts has taken the lead in publishing definitive editions of texts earlier published in the Rolls Series and this superb one by Anne Duggan completely supersedes the earlier edition of Thomas Becket's correspondence in that series ... An excellent index rounds off this invaluable work.
