Completes the register of Walter Langton, a leading figure in
political life at the time. Langton's register is important for two
reasons: it is the earliest extant register for the medieval
diocese of Coventry and Lichfield, and it has shed new light on the
life of one of the period's key political figures (Langton was
treasurer of Edward I and briefly of Edward II, suspended from
episcopal office by Pope Boniface VIII and twice imprisoned). This
volume completes the calendar of the register; it chiefly comprises
ordination lists, but also contains charters confirming Langton's
paternity. JILL HUGHES is a Research Fellow at the University of St
Andrews.
