  • Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549
    “JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

The team have been hard at work gathering contributions from our local people and businesses which are included in this issue. Special thanks, in this regard, go to Mike Leigh who has been ringing round the district and contacting all those who have contributed to this month’s Newsletter. As always, keep safe and keep your chins up! Best wishes Editor St Michael’s Hospice Lottery - Will you get the call? Each Friday the St Michael’s Hospice Lottery Manager, Michelle, phones one lucky player to tell them they're £1,000 richer. One recent call came at the perfect time for Linda Stokes. ‘I really needed a new stairlift, and if I didn’t get one I might have had to move house,’ she said. ‘So, to receive the call from Michelle was a very pleasant surprise. ‘The St Michael’s Hospice Lottery is a really affordable way to help such a good cause. I’m so glad I play.’ The generosity of players is helping St Michael’s continue supporting local families at a time they need it most. So, could this be the week Michelle calls you with the news you’re the £1,000 winner?
