This is the first Norwich episcopal register to be published. The
two counties of the Norwich diocese, Norfolk and Suffolk, were more
densely populated than most of medieval England, with nearly 1300
parishes, some one seventh of the national total. Its period covers
the fateful progress of the Black Death in 1349, showing its full
effects; also of particular interest is Bishop Bateman's foundation
of Trinity Hall, Cambridge, and the editor's identification of many
of the non-surviving churches in the diocese. Dr Pobst's
introduction demonstrates the unusual character of the early
Norwich registers, and traces the rise of Bateman to prominence in
the Anglo-French negotations in the opening years of the Hundred
Years War. Dr PHYLLIS E. POBST is Assistant Professor of History at
Arkansas State University.
