Book Synopsis England's Second Domesday and the Expulsion of the English Peasantry by : Spencer Dimmock
Download or read book England's Second Domesday and the Expulsion of the English Peasantry written by Spencer Dimmock and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-05-23 with total page 827 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world-shaking forced evictions of English peasants during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries are treated by most historians as largely a 'Tudor myth'. For them, the peasantry disappeared much later through fair means thanks to industrialisation and trade. Centred on close scrutiny of the royal commission of 1517 – 'England's Second Domesday' – this book overturns these accounts. It demonstrates, unequivocally, that capitalism carved fundamental and irreversible breaches into the English countryside between 1400 and 1620. It began, grew and thrived on widespread illegal clearances of rural people and their culture by the English ruling class, long before the British industrial revolution.
Book Synopsis The English Peasantry and the Growth of Lordship by : Rosamond Faith
Download or read book The English Peasantry and the Growth of Lordship written by Rosamond Faith and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1999-04-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This account of the changing relationship between lords and peasants in medieval England challenges many received ideas about the "origins of the manor", the status of the Anglo-Saxon peasantry, the 12th-century economy and the origins of villeinage. The author covers the period from the end of the Roman empire to the late-12th century, tracing in post-Conquest society the continuing influence of developments which originated in Anglo-Saxon England. Drawing on work in archaeology and landscape studies, as well as on documentary sources, the book describes a fundamental division within the peasantry: that between the very dependent tenants and agricultural workers on the "inland" of the estates of ministers, kinds and lords, and the more independent peasantry of the "warland". The study leads to the expression of views on many aspects of the development of society in the period.

Book Synopsis Landlords, Peasants and Politics in Medieval England by : T. H. Aston
Download or read book Landlords, Peasants and Politics in Medieval England written by T. H. Aston and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-02 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The articles in this book, reprinted from the journal Past and Present, are all, in different ways, concerned with the ownership of landed property in medieval England and with those who worked the land. Problems debated include those concerning the keeping intact of the great estates of the Anglo-Norman barons in the face of both inheritance claims and of political manipulation by the crown. Other articles show that the difficulties of knights and lesser gentry were no less complex, as social shifts resulted from economic developments as well as from their military role and their relationships with their overlords. The essays are of as much importance for those interested in the history of politics as to those concerned with the economy and society of medieval England.
Book Synopsis Class Conflict and the Crisis of Feudalism by : Rodney Hilton
Download or read book Class Conflict and the Crisis of Feudalism written by Rodney Hilton and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1985-07-01 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conflict between landlords and peasants over the appropriation of the surplus product of the peasant holding was a prime mover in the evolution of medieval society. In this collection of essays Rodney Hilton looks at the economic context within which these conflicts took place. He seeks to explain the considerable variations in the size, composition and management of landed estates and investigates the nature of medieval urbanisation, a consequence of the development of both local commodity production and long distance trade in luxury goods. By setting the broader economic context – the nature of the peasant and landlord economies and the commercialisation of peasant production – Hilton's essays enable a thorough understanding of the relationship between landlords and peasants in medieval society.
Book Synopsis A Second Domesday? by : Sandra Raban
Download or read book A Second Domesday? written by Sandra Raban and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2004-09-02 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1279-80 hundred rolls are one of the most important sources for later thirteenth century England, yet this is the first comprehensive study of the inquiry which brought them into being. A Second Domesday will be an indispensable working tool for historians and is based on the latest knowledge of the returns. More of these are being discovered all the time and one of the aims of this book is to stimulate the recognition of other surviving texts. The book places the inquiry in its historical context, continental as well as English. This is followed by an examination of its purpose and whether or not it was conceived deliberately as a second Domesday Book. Central to the study is a consideration of the geographical range of the inquiry, how it was conducted and the way in which the returns were compiled. The way in which the inquiry was used, by historians as well as contemporaries, along with the introductory chapters will be particularly helpful to students. The book concludes with a description of all known returns, which, together with the appendices, are designed to assist future users.

Book Synopsis The Agrarian History of England and Wales: Volume 3, 1348-1500 by : Edward Miller
Download or read book The Agrarian History of England and Wales: Volume 3, 1348-1500 written by Edward Miller and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third volume of The Agrarian History of England and Wales, dealing with the last century and a half of the middle ages, follows the general pattern of the second volume which described the generations of agricultural expansion between the time of Domesday and of the Black Death. The third volume, however, concerns itself with the new demographic and economic circumstances created in large measure by endemic plague, and how these circumstances influenced patterns of settlement in the countryside, farming practices and the structure of rural society, both at the level of landlords and in the villages. An attempt is made to distinguish the special influence of general circumstances in the different regions of late medieval England and Wales. The volume includes a study of the marketing of agricultural produce in the period 1200-1500, detailed analyses of the movements of prices and wages in the countryside, a review of peasant rebellions and discontent centered on the revolts of 1381, and a chapter devoted to rural building in England and Wales.

Download or read book Domesday England written by H. C. Darby and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1977-02-17 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domesday Book is the most famous English public record, and it is probably the most remarkable statistical document in the history of Europe. It calls itself merely a descriptio and it acquired its name in the following century because its authority seemed comparable to that of the Book by which one day all will be judged (Revelation 20:12). It is not surprising that so many scholars have felt its fascination, and have discussed again and again what it says about economic, social and legal matters. But it also tells us much about the countryside of the eleventh century, and the present volume is the seventh of a series concerned with this geographical information. As the final volume, it seeks to sum up the main features of the Domesday geography of England as a whole, and to reconstruct, as far as the materials allow, the scene which King William's clerks saw as they made their great inquest.

Book Synopsis The Ties that Bound by : Barbara A. Hanawalt
Download or read book The Ties that Bound written by Barbara A. Hanawalt and published by New York : Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As stimulating for the questions it asks as for the answers it provides"--The New York Times Book Review. Lifting the curtain on the dark ages, Barbara Hanawalt reveals the preoccupations, joys, and struggles of medieval families as never before. Based on a variety of sources--notably 3,000 coroners' inquests into accidental deaths--this intimate view of 14th-century life shows how peasants dealt with the protection of the newborn, control of premarital sex, the harshness of the environment, and more. The family, she argues, served much the same purpose then that it does today.
Download or read book Crisis of Feudalism written by G. Bois and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-12 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guy Bois' study of late medieval Normandy is a work of many dimensions. It should be of particular interest to English readers because of the close historical associations of England with Normandy and because of the natural resemblances between these two countries, separated only by the English Channel. This study does not, however, cover the period of close political association but that of invasion and warfare, of destruction and pillage. Although Guy Bois' book follows through the movements of population, prices, rents and wages over two and a half centuries, it does not consist simply of the delineation of trends. The realities of the land and its occupants are fitted into this boarder scheme, their economic and social activities are described as well as the impact on them of the military campaigns. All this is based on a meticulous analysis of every type of documentation available, ranging from tax returns to ecclesiastical surveys, from chronicles to rentals.
Book Synopsis The Penguin History of Britain: The Struggle for Mastery by : David Carpenter
Download or read book The Penguin History of Britain: The Struggle for Mastery written by David Carpenter and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2004-08-26 with total page 777 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two-and-a-half centuries after 1066 were momentous ones in the history of Britain. In 1066, England was conquered for the last time. The Anglo-Saxon ruling class was destroyed and and the English became a subject race, dominated by a Norman-French dynasty and aristocracy. This book shows how the English domination of the kingdom was by no means a foregone conclusion. The struggle for mastery in the book's title is in reality the struggle for different masteries within Great Britain. The book weaves together the histories of England, Scotland and Wales in a new way and argues that all three, in their different fashions, were competing for domination
