The varied career of Adam Easton (c.1330-1397) led him from Norwich
Cathedral Priory to Oxford, Avignon and Rome. Not only a monk of
the Benedictine Order, he was also a scholar, theologian, diplomat
and cardinal, and his work reflects the breadth of this
multifaceted background. This volume presents recent research on
Easton's oeuvre, his diplomacy and the books that accompanied him
on his travels. Amongst the works addressed in this volume are
Easton's Defensorium ecclesiastice potestatis, his Defensorium
Sanctae Birgittae and his Office for the Feast of the Visitation of
the Virgin Mary. Further evidence is also offered on his testimony
during the Great Schism, on the dating of his copy of De pauperie
Salvatoris, while two reassessments are made of his likeness,
including his sepulchral monument at S. Cecilia in Trastevere in
Rome and the Lutterworth wall painting. Finally, a catalogue of
Easton's important manuscript collection is also provided.
