Book Synopsis Medieval London by : Gwyn A. Williams
Download or read book Medieval London written by Gwyn A. Williams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique study is based on the careful interpretation of evidence in the commercial and administrative records of the City and in the royal records, of the process by which London developed from a commune of a feudal kingdom into the capital city of the English nation. The period covered is the century and a half between 1191 and the beginnings of the Hundred Years' War. Leading themes are the emergence of its administrative elite, the changing pattern of its mercantile interests, and the rise of its craft organizations; and a detailed account is given of the social and constitutional conflicts that marked London's history between the popular revolt of 1263 and the succession of Edward III. A notable feature of this volume is the reconstruction from teh records of a large number of outline biographies of Londoners of all classes. This book was first published in 1963.

Download or read book Medieval London written by William Benham and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-25 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1901, this work contains a wealth of information on various aspects of the history of London during the Medieval period. It is beautifully illustrated and is a fascinating work for anyone with an interest in the history of the capital city of England. The following passage is from the opening chapter: 'Mediaeval London it is a perfectly distinct and real subject, though it might be difficult to give exact dates of beginning and end. Historical periods glide in, and run their course, and fade away or take fresh shape. Yet we may venture to approximate, and to say with some confidence that Ancient London changed into Mediaeval in the days of King Alfred, and passed into Modern with the accession of the Stuarts. The Great Fire of 1666 made vast changes not only in the city itself, but in the surroundings thereof, but modern London had begun nearly a century before that.'
