Major edition of all the surviving medieval Rolls of Parliament: an
invaluable source for scholars. The rolls of parliament were the
official records of the meetings of the English parliament from the
reign of Edward I (1272-1307) until the reign of Henry VII
(1485-1509), after which they were superseded by the journals of
thelords, and, somewhat later, the commons. The rolls were first
edited in the eighteenth century and published in 1767 in six folio
volumes entitled Rotuli Parliamentorum, under the general
editorship of the Reverend John Strachey. This new edition
reproduces the rolls in their entirety, together with a few
individual items published since 1783, as well as a substantial
amount of material never previously published; it is complemented
by a full translation of all the texts from the three languages
used by the medieval clerks (Latin, Anglo-Norman and Middle
English). It also includes an introduction to every parliament
known to have been held by an English king (or in his name)between
1275 and 1504, whether or not the roll for that parliament
survives. Where appropriate, appendices of supplementary material
are also provided, and there is a General Introduction to the
rolls. Contributors to the set are as follows: PAUL BRAND
(1275-1307), SEYMOUR PHILLIPS (1307-1337), MARK ORMROD (1337-1377),
GEOFFREY MARTIN (1377-1379), CHRIS GIVEN-WILSON (1380-1421), ANNE
CURRY (1422-1453), ROSEMARY HORROX (1455-1504).
