    Jnl of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. , No. , July . © Cambridge University Press doi:./S How Useful are Episcopal Ordination Lists as a Source for Medieval English Monastic History? by DAVID E. THORNTON Bilkent University, Ankara E-mail: [email protected] This article evaluates ordination lists preserved in bishops’ registers from late medieval England as evidence for the monastic orders, with special reference to religious houses in the diocese of Worcester, from to . By comparing almost , ordination records collected from registers from Worcester and neighbouring dioceses with ‘conven- tual’ lists, it is concluded that over per cent of monks and canons are not named in the extant ordination lists. Over half of these omissions are arguably due to structural gaps in the surviving ordination lists, but other, non-structural factors may also have contributed. ith the dispersal and destruction of the archives of religious houses following their dissolution in the late s, many docu- W ments that would otherwise facilitate the prosopographical study of the monastic orders in late medieval England and Wales have been irre- trievably lost.

  • The Will of John Morton
    Running headARTICLES RIGHT The Will of John Morton – an introduction In the late spring of 2016, Dr Betty Knott, a retired Latinist from Glasgow University, graciously agreed to participate in The Missing Princes Project and offer her expertise. As the information gathering for the modern investigation into the disappearance of the sons of King Edward IV continued apace, it was becoming increasingly clear that the enquiry had to consider all potential sources of information. With John Morton’s role in the key period of investigation (1483–6), coupled with Dr Knott’s academic neutrality, revealing Morton’s will in full in English for the first time would not only be consistent with the aims and ambition of the project, but might offer new connections and insight into this important figure. Previously, only an epitome of Morton’s will was available in English translation.* With thanks to Marie Barnfield whose meticulous and informed transcript and decipherment of the very difficult hand of the original manuscript considerably expedited Dr Knott’s own reading of the original text, and author Isolde Martyn, whose investigations into John Morton instigated this complete English translation of his will. Philippa Langley MBE * C. Everleigh Woodruff, Kent Archaeological Society, 1914, vol 3, Sede Vacante Wills: Canterbury, pp 91–3. Complete Latin text pp 95–91. THE WILL OF JOHN MORTON, archbishop of Canterbury, c. 1420–1500 BETTY I. KNOTT This article, on behalf of The Missing Princes Project, is based on the original Latin text of the will of John Morton (c. 1420–1500), archbishop of Canterbury 1486–1500, and cardinal (1496).

  • English Translation of Dr Morton’S Will
    1 Translated from the Latin by Dr Betty Knott (University of Glasgow, ret) on behalf of The Missing Princes Project - published 1 June 2018 The Following Work Represents the First Complete English Translation of Dr Morton’s Will Will of John Morton, Cardinal, Archbishop of Canterbury (c.1420 – 15 September 1500) Made 16th July 1500 Proved 22nd October 1500 In the Name of God, Amen I, John Morton, by the mercy of God, Cardinal priest of the titular church of St Anastasia in the most holy church of Rome, Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of all England and Legate of the Apostolic See, being well in body, praise be to God, and of sound mind, being put in remembrance that for all men death is inevitable and that there is nothing more certain than death, even if the hour and mode of death are uncertain – and nothing can be more horrible than giving no thought to God and one's own death, seeing that the sinner, who during his life gave no thought to God, on his deathbed often has no consciousness of self – desiring therefore, while my body still has health and strength, to dispose of the resources and goods, which our Redeemer of his goodness has deigned to bestow abundantly upon me in this vale of tears, in a manner pleasing to him and for the discharging of my conscience, I make my testament as follows: 8 First, I revoke and annul all wills and testaments in any way concerning my goods and chattels previously made by me, and further I wish and by these presents declare that all wills and all testaments of this sort on my part, in so far as and to the extent that they are contrary to this my testament, shall without contradiction be of no force or effect, and that this my testament, subscribed in my own hand, shall be and be considered and observed as my true, complete and last will and as my true, complete and only legitimate testament.

  • An Edition of the Cartulary of St. Mary's Collegiate Church, Warwick
    An Edition of the Cartulary of St. Mary's Collegiate Church, Warwick Volume 1 of 2 Charles Richard Fonge submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy ,. University of York Department of History October 1999 Abstract This thesis is an edition of the fifteenth-century cartulary of the collegiate church of St. Mary and All Saints, Warwick (founded c. 1123). The cartulary, whose documents span the period 1100-1500, has been edited in full. Each document has been dated, is preceded by a summary in English, and followed by notes on the text. These include references to originals, other manuscript and printed copies, variant readings from contemporary copies, and furnish reasons for assigning a particular date, besides biographical and contextual information relating to the document and those mentioned within it. A full introduction to the cartulary and editorial method is given at the beginning of the edition itself. Appended to the edition is also a biographical index of the college's fasti and an edited version of an important set of its 1441 statutes. A more contextual introduction to this edition consists of five chapters, which explore the college's history and development and form the initial volume. The first chapter deals with the foundation of church and college and the importance of their Anglo-Saxon past, in which context Norman contributions must be viewed. Chapter 2 defines le constitution of the college and explores the interplay between individual and community, personality and politics, in shaping its legislation, constitution and the practice of each. Chapter 3 examines the place of the collegiate church as an institution in the diocesan and politico-economic frameworks of the later Middle Ages, before assessing relations between St.

    THE GLOUCESTER SCENE—- AUGUST 1483 GWEN WATERS KING RICHARD came to Gloucester shortly after his coronation and stayed in the town for one or two days. More and Vergil make this episode the setting for the first act of the tragedy of the murdered Princes and also for the final meeting between the King and the Duke of Buckingham.1 The aim of this article, therefore, 15 to turn the spotlight upon the Gloucester scené m Au'gus_t, l483—for the above reason, and also because it was typical of many towns in the late fifteenth century. The ordinary citizens, for the most part, ignored power politics as much as they possibly could, being far more concerned with their own local affairs, and King Richard, being such a benefactor of the. town and their own duke, was probably welcomed wholeheartedly and enthusiastically. But among the eminent churchmen and nobility who, one supposes, were gathered there on this occasion, one may suspect divided allegiance, some regard and support, but also some potential disaffection. As has been mentioned previously (Ricardian, Volume III, N'.o 48, p. l_4), the civic and ecclesiastical archives for this year are almost non-existent. T hlS is not perhaps so unusual; the fifteenth century tends to be poorly documented, but it does seem a little suspicious that the only surviving manuscript for the year l483—the year of the town’s incorporation—is (apart from the Charter itself) a carpenter’s specification which happens to be dated in the reign of Edward V. However, it is the persons present—those with some;local affiliation that is— that this article seeks to present for consideration.

    Richard III, the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, and Two Turbulent Priests ANNE F. SUTTON and LIVIA VISSER-FUCHS In June and July 1483 the two universities of England wrote to Richard as the duke of Gloucester and as king and asked for his benevolent mercy towards two of their graduates: Thomas Rotherham of Cambridge and John Morton of Oxford.One of the letters is in hasty and informal English and the other in competent, formal Latin, embellished with a few classical quotations. The one reads as a spontaneous, warm and anxious plea, the other as a careful exercise in rhetoric. Their dramatic difference in tone and formprovides an interesting contrast as exercises in the art of petitioning. Why were the letters so different? The two men were of an age, born in the 14205 and dying in 1500. They both came fromsimilar backgrounds and had to make their own way in the world. They both had university educations, but whereas Rothcrham aimed at a doctorate in theology, Morton graduated in the two laws, 3 significant difference. Rotherham became a notable benefactor in his lifetime and is acknowledged as such by his biographers. Morton founded no institutions, although he did contribute to building projects, and his biographers choose to emphasise his brilliance and value as a royal servant. Both were accomplished administrators. Rotherham held the office of chancellor of England competently as a man of the church, while Morton held the same office as the king’s prime minister in every sense, and gained great personal unpopulatity. Perhaps it can be said Rotherham was in the last analysis a clergyman, while Morton was above all a consummate politician and lawyer.

INCORPORATED 1893. Record Series. VOL. XL. FOR THE YEAR 1908. PAVER'S Marriage Licences. EDITED BY JOHN WM. CLAY, F.S.A., Vice-President of the Yorkshire Archaological Society PRINTED FOR THE SOCIETY. 1909. INTRODUCTION. PAVER'S Marriage Licences were begun to be printed by the Yorkshire Archccological Society in Volume VII. of their Journal. They were continued in Volumes IX., X., XL, XII., XIIL, XIV., XVI., XVIL, XX. The Council of the Society having considered that in that form the work would take many years to be finished, decided to transfer it to the ^' Record Series." The present volume takes it up where it was left off in the Journal, viz., from the year 1630, and continues it till the year 1644. Another volume will perhaps complete the work to 17 14, which is the end of the MS. in London. A full account of Paver's MSS. was given in the Journal, Vol. XX., p. 68, but it may be again stated that these licences, which were originally at York, were transcribed by William Paver, the Genealogist, in two volumes, which are at the British Museum, Add. MSS. 29667-8. The original MSS. at York are not believed to be in existence, at least the earlier parts. The entries have been transcribed by Miss Osier, a copyist at the British Museum, and the editor has himself examined most of the proofs with the MSS., so it is hoped that the work is as perfect as possible, though sometimes difficulties have arisen owing to the contractions used by Paver, and to his frequent queries as to the spelling of the names.
