ISBN: 9780199560004 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In The Foundations of Gentry Life, Peter Coss examines the formative years of the English gentry. In doing so, he explains their lasting characteristics during a long history as a social elite, including adaptability to change and openness to upward mobility from below, chiefly from the professions.
Revolving around the rich archive left by the Multons of Frampton in South Lincolnshire, the book explores the material culture of the gentry, their concern with fashion and their obsession with display. It pays close attention to the visitors to their homes, and to the social relationships... In The Foundations of Gentry Life, Peter Coss examines the formative years of the English gentry.

Lordship, Knighthood and Locality: A Study in English Society, C.1180-1280
ISBN: 9780521402965 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is a study in the evolution of English society between c. 1180 and c. 1280. The argument proceeds by means of a detailed analysis of the honour and locality of Coventry, concentrating upon the nature of lordship and upon the social and economic fortunes of knights, free tenants and local administrators, and the relationships between them. A further dimension is added by the existence of an important seignorial borough at the centre of the locality. The book therefore not only explores the role of the town in the evolution of the knightly class, but also examines more broadly the...

The Moral World of the Law
ISBN: 9780521640596 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The dominant and deceptively simple theme of this book is the relationship between the moral environment of the courtroom and that of the society in which the court is situated. The volume ranges widely across time and space, from ancient Greece to twentieth-century Africa. As a consequence, it encompasses not only the highly professional legal systems of the Roman, later medieval and modern worlds, but also the relatively unprofessionalized courts of classical Athens and of the early Middle Ages and the alien, imposed legal systems of colonial Rhodesia and Kenya.

The Origins of the English Gentry
ISBN: 9780521826730 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although the gentry played a central role in medieval England, this study is the first sustained exploration of its origins and development between the mid-thirteenth and the mid-fourteenth century. Arguing against views which see the gentry as formed or created earlier, the text investigates as well the relationship between lesser landowners and the Angevin state; the transformation of knighthood; and the role of lesser landowners in society and politics.

Heraldry, Pageantry and Social Display in Medieval England
ISBN: 9781843830368 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Medieval culture was intensely visual. Although this has long been recognised by art historians and by enthusiasts for particular media, there has been little attempt to study social display as a subject in its own right. And yet, display takes us directly into the values, aspirations and, indeed, anxieties of past societies. In this illustrated volume a group of experts address a series of interrelated themes around the issue of display and do so in a way which avoids jargon and overly technical language. Among the themes are family and lineage, social distinction and aspiration, ceremony...
