A comprehensive investigation into Kent in the later middle ages,
from its agriculture to religious houses, from ship-building to the
parish church. Kent was extremely important in the later middle
ages. Its location between London and continental Europe; Thomas
Becket's internationally famous shrine; its ancient Cinque Ports;
and the early development of new religious ideas all make its
history in this period particularly fascinating. The essays
collected here present the fruits of new research into a wide range
of topics, offering insights into all the most important aspects of
life at the time. Thevolume opens with a major survey of Kent's
economic history and development during the period in question;
subsequent chapters consider agriculture; ship-building; the
Kentish nobility and their role in regional and national politics;
religious houses; heresy; magic; and the parish church. Dr Sheila
Sweetinburgh teaches in the Department of English, University of
Kent. Contributors: Mavis Mate, Bruce Campbell, Gillian Draper,
Peter Fleming, David Grummitt, Malcolm Mercer, Barry Dobson,
Elizabeth Edwards, Sheila Sweetinburgh, Robert Lutton, Karen Jones
