Seeking Sanctuary: Crime, Mercy, and Politics in English Courts, 1400-1550
ISBN: 9780198798149 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. In premodern English law, felons had the right to seek sanctuary in a church or ecclesiastical precinct. It is commonly held that this practice virtually died out after the medieval period, but Shannon McSheffrey highlights its resurgence under the Tudor regime and shows how the issue lay at the intersection between law, religion, and culture.

Mother of Mercy, Bane of the Jews: Devotion to the Virgin Mary in Anglo-Norman England
ISBN: 9780691169538 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. Mother of Mercy, Bane of the Jews explores a key moment in the rise of the cult of the Virgin Mary and the way the Jews became central to her story. Benedictine monks in England at the turn of the twelfth century developed many innovative ways to venerate Mary as the most powerful saintly intercessor. They sought her mercy on a weekly and daily basis with extensive liturgical practices, commemorated additional moments of her life on special feast days, and praised her above all other human beings with new doctrines that claimed her Immaculate Conception and bodily Assumption. They... Mother of Mercy, Bane of the Jews explores a key moment in the rise of the cult of the Virgin Mary and the way the Jews became central to he... |

The Cult of St Thomas Becket in the Plantagenet World, C.1170-C.1220
ISBN: 9781783271610 / Angielski / Twarda / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. Thomas Becket - the archbishop of Canterbury cut down in his own cathedral just after Christmas 1170 - stands amongst the most renowned royal ministers, churchmen, and saints of the Middle Ages. He inspired the work of medieval writers and artists, and remains a compelling subject for historians today. Yet many of the political, religious, and cultural repercussions of his murder and subsequent canonisation remain to be explored in detail. This book examines the development of the cult and the impact of the legacy of Saint Thomas within the Plantagenet orbit of the late twelfth and early...

The Murder of William of Norwich: The Origins of the Blood Libel in Medieval Europe
ISBN: 9780190219628 / Angielski / Twarda / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. In 1144, the mutilated body of William of Norwich, a young apprentice leatherworker, was found abandoned outside the city's walls. The boy bore disturbing signs of torture, and a story spread that it was a ritual murder, performed by Jews in imitation of the Crucifixion as a mockery of Christianity. The outline of William's tale eventually gained currency far beyond Norwich, and the idea that Jews engaged in ritual murder became firmly rooted in the European imagination. E.M. Rose's engaging book delves into the story of William's murder and the notorious trial that followed to uncover...

The Wars of the Roses
ISBN: 9781445660356 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Wars of the Roses call to mind bloody battles, treachery and deceit, and a cast of characters known to us through fact and fiction: Edward IV, Elizabeth Woodville, Richard III, Warwick the Kingmaker, the Princes in the Tower, Henry Tudor. But the whole era also creates a level of bewilderment among even keen readers. John Ashdown-Hill gets right to the heart of this 'thorny' subject, dispelling the myths and bringing clarity to a topic often shrouded in confusion. Between 1455 and 1487, a series of dynastic wars for the throne of England were fought. These have become known as the Wars of...

Ceremony and Civility : Civic Culture in Late Medieval London
ISBN: 9780190490409 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. Medieval London, like all premodern cities, had a largely immigrant population-only a small proportion of the inhabitants were citizens-and the newly arrived needed to be taught the civic culture of the city in order for that city to function peacefully. Ritual and ceremony played key roles in this acculturation process. In Ceremony and Civility, Barbara A. Hanawalt shows how, in the late Middle Ages, London's elected officials and elites used ceremony and ritual to establish their legitimacy and power. In a society in which hierarchical authority was most commonly determined by...
