Ottonian Germany: The Chronicon of Thietmar of Merseburg
ISBN: 9780719049262 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Chronicon of Thietmar of Merseburg has long been recognised as one of the most important sources for the history of the tenth and early eleventh centuries, especially for the history of the Ottonian Empire. Thietmar's testimony also has special value because of his geographical location, in eastern Saxony, on the boundary between German and Slavic cultures. He is arguably the single most important witness to the early history of Poland, and his detailed descriptions of Slavic folklore are the earliest on record. This is a very important source in the medieval period, translated here in...

The Divorce of King Lothar and Queen Theutberga: Hincmar of Rheims's de Divortio
ISBN: 9780719082955 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the mid-ninth century, Francia was rocked by the first royal divorce scandal of the Middle Ages: the attempt by King Lothar II of Lotharingia to rid himself of his queen, Theutberga, and replace her with Waldrada, the mother of his children. Lothar, however, faced opposition to his actions; kings and bishops from neighbouring kingdoms, and eventually the pope himself, were gradually drawn into a crisis affecting the fate of an entire kingdom and which helped durably shape European politics and culture. This book is the first professionally published translation of a key source for this...

The Parliament Rolls of Medieval England, 1275-1504: XIV: Edward IV. 1472-1483
ISBN: 9781843837763 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 476 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The rolls of parliament were the official records of the meetings of the English parliament from the reign of Edward I (1272-1307) until the reign of Henry VII (1485-1509), after which they were superseded by the journals of the lords, and, somewhat later, the commons. The three parliaments of Edward IV's second reign are strikingly unbalanced. The first, which lasted from 1472-75, was from the king's point of view mainly concerned with financing the projected war against France, but also sees the final settlement of the Yorkist regime with former Lancastrians making their peace and a further...

At the very end of the eleventh century, the German monk Frutolf of Michelsberg completed a chronicle that would become one of the most significant historical works of the middle ages.

This book provides scholars and students alike with a set of texts that can deepen their understanding of the culture and society of the twelfth-century German kingdom.

The Parliament Rolls of Medieval England, 1275-1504: XV: Richard III. 1484-1485 & Henry VII. 1485-1487
ISBN: 9781843837770 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 403 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The rolls of parliament were the official records of the meetings of the English parliament from the reign of Edward I (1272-1307) until the reign of Henry VII (1485-1509), after which they were superseded by the journals of the lords, and, somewhat later, the commons. This volume contains the only parliament of Richard III - an essential source for his accession in 1483 and for his response to the subsequent rebellion. Henry VII's assertion of his title in 1485 is strikingly different, as is his long act of resumption (a roll in itself) that reveals not only which Yorkist grants he was...

This collection of essays takes a fresh and invigorating look at late-medieval English society by focusing not on how people lived but on how they saw the world and their place in it. Alongside contributions on how different social groups saw themselves and were seen by others are more general discussions of key aspects of fifteenth-century life: attitudes to the rule of law, to the power of the ruler, to education, to honour and service, and finally to death.

The Parliament Rolls of Medieval England, 1275-1504: XIII: Edward IV. 1461-1470
