The Reign of Edward II: New Perspectives
ISBN: 9781903153192 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Edward II presided over a turbulent and politically charged period of English history, but to date he has been relatively neglected in comparison to other fourteenth and fifteenth-century kings. This book offers a significant re-appraisal of a much maligned monarch and his historical importance, making use of the latest empirical research and revisionist theories, and concentrating on people and personalities, perceptions and expectations, rather than dry constitutional analysis. Papers consider both the institutional and the personal facets of Edward II's life and rule: his sexual...

Henry V: New Interpretations
ISBN: 9781903153468 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Henry V (1413-22) is widely acclaimed as the most successful late medieval English king. In his short reign of nine and a half years, he re-imposed the rule of law, made the crown solvent, decisively crushed heresy, achieved a momentous victory at the battle of Agincourt (1415), and negotiated a remarkably favourable settlement for the English over the French in the Treaty of Troyes (1420). Above all, he restored the reputation of the English monarchy and united the English people behind the crown following decades of upheaval and political turmoil. But who was the man behind these...

Focusing on the key role of the English medieval parliament in hearing and determining the requests of the king's subjects, this ground-breaking new study examines the private petition and its place in the late medieval English parliament (c.1270-1450).

Fourteenth Century England IX
ISBN: 9781783271221 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The wide-ranging studies collected here reflect the latest concerns of and trends in fourteenth-century research, including work on politics, the law, religion, and chronicle writing.

There is an investigation of the often overlooked, yet ever present, lesser parish clergy of pre-Black Death England, along with the...
