This study of establishment Dublin in the Elizabethan period draws
on the consider- able body of documentation which survives in the
city archives and elsewhere - assembly rolls from 1550, treasury
and sheriffs records from 1541, and minutes of the alderman's bench
the corporation from 1567 - and also on a wide variety of other
contemporary writings and sources. The Dublin of the period saw the
rise of the aldermanic elite to a dominant role in civic politics
and society. Dr Lennon explores the world of these patricians
against the background of civic privilege, state policy and the
growth of recusancy. He is also concerned to show how they
consolidated their social position through marriage with
fellow-patricians and gentry, and investment in urban and rural
properties. Reconstructed biographies of some hundred leading
councillors are supplied. In the course of the study, the author
provides a valuable survey of the topography and history of late
medieval Dublin and of public affairs in general in the period
1548- 1613.
