This latest edition to the English Episcopal Acta series brings
together for the first time edited versions of all the extant
charters issued by the bishops of Durham between 1241 and 1283:
Nicholas Farnham, Walter Kirkham, Robert Stichill and Robert of
Holy Island (the last two, unusually at this date, monastic
bishops). The surviving charters provide insights into episcopal
administration and estate management in the mid-thirteenth-century
diocese. A full introduction considers the lives of these
little-studied bishops and the diplomatic of their charters, as
well as the unusual structure of the episcopal households here. The
bishops' itineraries are also given in an appendix. This volume
complements EEA 24IR (0-19-726234-1) and EEA 25 (0-19-726235-X),
which contained the acta from 1153 onwards.
