This book celebrates the work and contribution of Professor Janet
Burton to medieval monastic studies in Britain. Burton has
fundamentally changed approaches to the study of religious
foundations in regional contexts (Yorkshire and Wales), placing
importance on social networks for monastic structures and female
Cistercian communities in medieval Britain; moreover, she has
pioneered research on the canons and their place in medieval
English and Welsh societies. This Festschrift comprises
contributions by her colleagues, former students and friends -
leading scholars in the field - who engage with and develop themes
that are integral to Burton's work. The rich and diverse collection
in the present volume represents original work on religious life in
the British Isles from the twelfth to the sixteenth century as
homage to the transformative contribution that Burton has made to
medieval monastic studies in the British Isles.
