This series [pushes] the boundaries of knowledge and [develops] new
trends in approach and understanding. ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW The
vitality and diversity of research into the late medieval period
are exemplified by the contents of this volume. A central theme is
the medieval Church: examinations of the process of ordination, the
parishioners of Dartford in Kent and the influence of their learned
vicar, how monastic chroniclers changed their focus as the century
progressed, the perhaps unjustified reputation of Bishop Ayscough
of Salisbury, and the significance of Edward IV's charter of
ecclesiastical liberties. Another strand concentrates on Ireland,
to explore both the complex relations between the Gaelic-speaking
peoples of the west and the Stewart monarchy in Scotland, and the
status and participation in government of the English settled near
Dublin. Unusual perspectives on London are derived from a study of
those engaged in identity theft there at the start of the century,
and two heralds' accounts of the public processions andelaborate
funeral rites accorded to a French ambassador at its end.
