Their records survive in large quantities in archives across England, and they provide an unparalleled insight into the lives and work of thousands of men and women who lived in these towns. The court rolls tell us much about the practice of law at the local level within towns, as well as yielding a broad range of perspectives on the economy, society and administration of towns. This volume is the first collection dedicated to the analysis of town courts and their records. Through a wide range of approaches, it offers new interpretations of the role that these courts played. It also demonstrates the wide range of uses to which court records can be put to in order to more fully understand medieval urban society. The volume draws on the records of a considerable number of towns and their courts across England, including London, York, Norwich, Lincoln, Nottingham, Lynn, Chester, Bromsgrove and Shipston-on-Stour. 650 0 $a Municipal courts $z England $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Court records $z England $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Law, Medieval $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Urbanization $z England $x History $y To 1500. 651 0 $a England $x Social conditions $y 1066-1485. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x History $y Medieval period, 1066-1485. 650 7 $a Court records. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00881677 650 7 $a Municipal courts. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029237 651 7 $a England. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01219920 648 7 $a To 1500 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Goddard, Richard, $d 1967- $e editor. 700 1 $a Phipps, Teresa, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Town courts and urban society in late Medieval England, 1250-1500. $d Suffolk, UK : The Boydell Press, 2019 $z 9781787445680 $w (OCoLC)1108619659 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318012543.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F33AD77C083E11EABF3FA51A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
