A primer on medieval justice, this book focuses on France, Germany
and England and covers the thousand years between the
transformation of the Roman world in Western Europe, which took
place around the 4th and 5th centuries, and the European
Renaissance of the 14th and 15th centuries. The work highlights
some of the key elements in the intricate, overlapping legal
systems of the Middle Ages and covers a wide range of contemporary
laws and cases. A discussion of the modern legacies of medieval law
is also included. Appendices include a brief overview of the
Inquisition, an explanation of a pennya s worth in the Middle Ages,
the Medieval and later laws concerning swans, the 27 articles of
Joan of Arc (which witnesses were asked to deny or confirm at her
nullification trial), an examination of the High Court of Chivalry,
Justices of Peace in the UK today, and a listing of selected cases
and laws cited in the text. Illustrations range from the earliest
known depictions of English courts and illuminations of torture to
pictures of important sites, events, and instruments of punishment
in medieval law.
