The Paston Family in the Fifteenth Century: Volume 1, the First Phase
ISBN: 9780521520270 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Pastons of Paston, Norfolk, are famous for the collection of letters and papers which bear their name. In particular 'the Paston Letters' have been well known since the time of Horace Walpole, although until now they have never been used systematically by historians of fifteenth-century England: they are both immensely attractive to read and fiendishly difficult to use as source material from which to write history. This volume describes, in lively and original style, the beginnings of the family's gentility and sets out some of the major themes of their history between 1400 and 1500....

John Hopton: A Fifteenth Century Suffolk Gentleman
ISBN: 9780521020152 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

If his vices were not extravagant, his virtues too were unexceptional, those perhaps of a type of country gentleman we usually associate with a later age. Colin Richmond's book is an attempt to place a particular English gentleman in...
