Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates how the early Christian community of Llandaff grew and expanded in the wake of the Norman invasion of 1066. Drawing on manuscripts, deeds, census records, and many other historical sources, the author presents a detailed history of the Cathedral, its clerics, and the properties they accumulated and retained over hundreds of years. Through this detailed historical account, the author uncovers how the church retained its pre-Norman wealth and privilege, and how they managed to expand that influence with the support of the new ruling class in Wales. The author's compelling narrative provides unique insights into the religious, political, and social dynamics of Wales following the Norman Conquest.
