'Grace books' were the volumes in which scribes recorded decisions
of the administration of the University of Cambridge during the
fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Many of the 'graces' concern the
conferral of degrees on individuals, but others refer to more
general University business including appointment of teachers and
preachers, leaves of absence, inventories and financial records,
and the resolution of disputes. Grace Book A covers the period from
1454 to 1488. The Introduction by Stanley M. Leathes explains the
medieval terminology and the administrative systems underlying it,
and a thorough index is also provided. The Latin documents
transcribed and printed in this 1897 publication are a valuable
source for those researching fifteenth-century British history and
institutions, and this reissue will make them readily available to
scholars today.
