Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. 1st Edition. A fine new copy. ere are thirteen peer-reviewed essays by leading historians exploring the subject of death and dying in the middle ages. The essays explore some of the many ways in which death in its practical and devotional aspects impinged on the lives of medieval people, men and women, rich and poor, both in England and in continental Europe. Underlying and linking the papers is the medieval preoccupation with the transitory nature of life and the fear of sudden death. A study of the text and illumination of the famous 11th-century Tiberius Psalter in the British Library begins the book. Two essays follow about sudden death, mainly murder, in London and Bologna. In the first of three literary papers, purgatory is discussed in the context of the Compileison, an influential but little-known prose treatise; the second concentrates on the diverse ways death is treated in late medieval English verse, and the third on 'Laments', verse elegies for eminent people in manuscript and print. In his last Harlaxton paper, the late Clive Burgess proposed a new perspective on English parish chantries, suggesting that as well as caring for the salvation of individual souls, chantries meant extra priests, vessels and vestments, benefitting the Church as a whole. On a different scale, written and visual sources allow for a close look at the richly endowed perpetual chantries established by Isabella of Portugal, third wife of Philip the Good, duke of Burgundy, in Carthusian houses. Funerals and wills are illustrated by the state funeral in Florence of the condottiere, Niccolò da Tolentino, by the funeral palls of Henry VII, and by the complex and exceptionally well-documented story of the execution of the will of Sir Thomas Lucy of Charlecote in Warwickshire, who died in 1525. Monuments commemorating the medieval dead are represented by a splendid but now lost tomb in Bruges, and by a chantry chapel in Hexham Abbey. The authors of the essays in order of appearance are T. A. Heslop, Henry Summerson, Trevor Dean, Nicholas Watson, Julia Boffey, A. S. G. Edwards, Clive Burgess, Nicholas Flory, Jane Bridgeman, Lisa Monnas, Richard Asquith, Ann Adams and Julian Luxford. The book is indexed and has 62 pictures. 259pp.

Hardback. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition. A fine new copy, sewn in sections, hundreds of illustrations mostly printed in colour, index. This festschrift honours the late Jerome Bertram of the Oxford Oratory and former Vice-President of the Monumental Brass Society, who admired, researched, lectured on and wrote about monumental brasses and incised slabs for over fifty years. The essays presented here display the latest research from leading scholars, who shed new light on all types of monument - cross-slabs, effigies, incised slabs and brasses, canopied tombs - as individual case studies and regional surveys. They also consider the production process, workshops, antiquarian studies and the evidence for lost monuments not only in England and Wales but across mainland Europe. They range chronologically from as early as Christ's tomb in ancient Jerusalem through the Roman, medieval and early modern periods and conclude with a study of a brass in nineteenth-century Oxford. These essays are a worthy tribute to an antiquary who did so much to promote the study of medieval funerary monuments. The book also includes a comprehensive bibliography of Bertram's own publications and a Foreword by Martin Stuchfield. The authors of the 25 essays are in order: Christian Steer, Julian Luxford, Martin Henig, Aleksandra McClain, Brian & Moira Gittos, Madeleine Gray, Sally Badham, Nigel Saul, Robert Hutchinson, Philip J. Lankaster & John Blair, Jon Bayliss, Paul Cockerham, Sophie Oosterwijk, Ann J. Adams, Reinhard Lamp, David Lepine, John S. lee, Jean Wilson, Adam White, Robin Emmerson, David Meara, Christian Steer (again), Nicholas Rogers, Richard Busby, and Charlotte A. Stanford.

Hardback. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition. A fine new copy 520pp + colour plates. Here are twenty-five peer-reviewed essays by leading historians exploring the distinctive aspects which the urban environment brought to late-medieval religious life. The essays are gathered in six sections ranging from liturgy, music and fabric, parish politics, the relationships between the religious orders and between them and the laity, the life of the church in smaller towns (different from the life in the cities and the villages), the role of the church in charity, and aspects of clerical devotion expressed in monumental sculpture and literature. There are 64 pages of colour plates, highlights of these being parishes in Norwich, stained glass at Long Melford in Suffolk and the cadaverous tomb of Bishop Fleming at Lincoln.

Hardback. Condición: New. An examination of how academic colleges commemorated their patrons in a rich variety of ways.WINNER of a 2019 Cambridgeshire Association for Local History award. The people of medieval Cambridge chose to be remembered after their deaths in a variety of ways - through prayers, Masses and charitable acts, and bytomb monuments, liturgical furnishings and other gifts. The colleges of the university, alongside their educational role, arranged commemorative services for their founders, fellows and benefactors. Together with the town's parishchurches and religious houses, the colleges provided intercessory services and resting places for the dead. This collection explores how the myriad of commemorative enterprises complemented and competed as locations where the living and the dead from "town and gown" could meet. Contributors analyse the commemorative practices of the Franciscan friars, the colleges of Corpus Christi, Trinity Hall and King's, and within Lady Margaret Beaufort's Cambridge household; the depictions of academic and legal dress on memorial brasses, and the use and survival of these brasses. The volume highlights, for the first time, the role of the medieval university colleges within the family ofcommemorative institutions; in offering a new and broader view of commemoration across an urban environment, it also provides a rich case-study for scholars of the medieval Church, town, and university. JOHN S. LEE is Research Associate at the Centre for Medieval Studies, University of York; CHRISTIAN STEER is Honorary Visiting Fellow in the Department of History, University of York. Contributors: Sir John Baker, Richard Barber, Claire GobbiDaunton, Peter Murray Jones, Elizabeth A. New, Susan Powell, Michael Robson, Nicholas Rogers.
