Download or read book Brian Fitz-Count written by Augustine David Crake and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Brian Fitz-Count: A Story of Wallingford Castle and Dorchester Abbey The tale is all too true to mediaeval life in its darker features. The reader has only to turn to the last pages of the Anglo-80mm Chronicle to justify the terrible description of the dungeons of the Castle, and the sufferings inflicted therein. Brian fitz-count was a real personage. The writer has recorded his dark deeds, but has striven to speak gently of him, especially of his tardy repentance; his faults were those of most Norman barons.

Download or read book King Stephen written by Donald Matthew and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reign of King Stephen (1135-54) has usually been seen as uniquely disasterous in the history of the medieval England -- a counrty riven by a civil war between Stephen and his first cousin, the Empress Matilda, and by an anarchy during which overmighty barons laid waste the country and 'Christ and his saints slept'. Donald Matthew challenges this picture. By questioning such melodramatic assumptions, and by looking clearly at what can and cannot be known about Stephen, he brings new light to both the king and his reign. He shows that much of what has been written about Stephen has been based on the selective use of the testimony of hostile witnesses, and has been shot through by wishful thinking or by the political or historical prejudices of the day. King Stephen is an important, well-written and timely reinterpretation of the crisis of Norman government.
