First Published in 1962. A collection of papers presented at the
Ford Lectures in 1923. The topics covered are the distoration of
the truth and prejudices about Fifteenth-century England by
chroniclers and Tudor historians and that the truth could only be
discovered by the study from difference sources of of the time.
First Published in 1962. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.
First published in 1905, this work contains editions and discussion
of three mid-fifteenth-century manuscript copies of London
chronicles giving detailed insight into the city in this period.
The volume was compiled by the respected historian Charles
Lethbridge Kingsford (1862-1926), who published extensively on many
subjects but was notable for his expertise on the reign of Henry V,
which underpinned his appreciation of the importance of these
chronicles. His scholarly introduction covers each of the London
chronicles and discusses their manuscript copies, authorship,
contents, dates and the intertextual relationships between them.
The texts are accompanied by foliation and marginalia, and
footnotes showing other manuscript variations. The appendices,
containing details of texts drawn from each manuscript, include a
list of lords, knights and gentlemen slain, and details of
variations between manuscripts. This work also includes an
extensive glossary, endnotes, and an index of names, places and
topics.
Originally published in 1925, this book gives the history of the
Leicester Square, Piccadilly and Soho areas of London. The first
part documents the history of the land before houses were built,
and the circumstances under which the Plan of 1585 was created, and
the second part details the development of the areas over the next
few centuries. This book will be of value to anyone with an
interest in cartography or the history of London.
