[The series is] a necessary addition for any scholar working in
this field. NOTTINGHAM MEDIEVAL STUDIES Editors: Janet Burton,
Bjoern Weiler, Philipp Schofield, Karen Stoeber The thirteenth
century brought the British Isles into ever closer contact with one
another, and with medieval Europe as a whole. This international
dimensionforms a dominant theme of this collection: it features
essays on England's relations with the papal court; the adoption of
European cultural norms in Scotland; Welsh society and crusading;
English landholding in Ireland; and dealings between the kings of
England and Navarre. Other papers, on ritual crucifixion, concepts
of office and ethcis, and the English royal itinerary, show that
the thirteenth century was also a period of profound political and
cultural change, witnessing the transformation of legal and
economic structures [represented here by case studies of noblewomen
and their burial customs; and a prolonged inheritance dispute in
Laxton]. This volume testifies to the continuing vitality and [with
contributors from three continents and six countries] international
nature of scholarship on medieval Britain; and moves beyond the
Channel to make an important contribution to the history of
medieval Europes. Contributors: ROBERT STACEY, FREDERIQUE LACHAUD,
STEPHEN CHURCH, CHRISTIAN HILLEN, JESSICA NELSON, MATTHEW HAMMOND,
KATHRYN HURLOCK, NICHOLAS VINCENT, ADAM DAVIES, HUI LIU, EMMA
