CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION From time to time we read that the last word has been written on a certain historical subject. This is a foreboding assertion for the scholars whose manuscripts on a similar theme are awaiting submission to the experts for examination and approval, and whose future career depends at least partly on the interest and support of a publisher. The definitive judge­ ment against the future implied by these words neither enhances the reputation of their author nor provides any critical insight into the value of the particular book under review. It is with a firm conviction that, for the historian, the last word will never be written that I present this study of the administration of the Cathedral Priory of St. Swithun's in Winchester during the episcopate of Cardinal Beaufort. The list of historical monographs, essays and articles on the administration of English monastic cathedrals in the medieval period continues to grow, although no one has yet attempted a comparative study to stand beside that brilliant work of Miss Kathleen Edwards, The English Secular Cathedrals in the Middle Ages (19^9)* However, each of the nine cathedrals in England "These were Canterbury, Winchester, Durham, Norwich, Worcester, Ely, Rochester, Bath and Coventry. The last two, however, differ from the rest in that they were only one of two cathedrals under the same bishop. See Miss Edwards' Secular Cathedrals, 2nd edn., rev., p. 11; and also M. D. Knowles, The Monastic Order in England, 9^3-1216, Cambridge, 1950, p. 621. - 2 - which were staffed by Benedictine or Black Monks has had its own devoted group of antiquaries, scholars and more recently professional historians who, during the centuries since the Reformation, have preserved and often at the same time augmented the store of historical knowledge which has been handed down by succeeding generations. Winchester has had its share of such writers to whom much is owed by their present day successors. Yet their writings, though for the most part in the tradition of sound scholarship, cannot be considered in any way either final or complete. In the first place, there are many lacunae in the surviving historical records, and the bulk of what remains is of limited value since it belongs in the category of official documents. Secondly, while this large collection of manuscript quires and rolls has been frequently examined in the search for additional information, and a few transcriptions and translations of certain classes of docu- 2 ments have been edited and printed , the interests of previous antiquarians and historians centred on topics and problems which were of contemporary concern. Their preoccupations have now ceased to have much significance for us who are surrounded by the 'E.g., G. W. Kitchin, ed., Compotus Rolls of the Obedientiaries of St. Swithun's Priory, Winchester, Hampshire Record Society, 1892; and also A. W. Goodman,ed., Chartulary of Winchester Cathedral, Winchester, 1927- The more recent work of J. S. Drew deserves mention. This is available in bound volumes of un­ published typescript, copies of which are in the Institute of Historical Research, London, and the Cathedral Library, Winchester, and consists of a series of compotus rolls, and where they ex­ ist, court rolls, rentals and custumals of the priory manors of Silkstead, Chilbolton, Michelmersh and Houghton which were edited and translated by Mr. Drew between 19^3 and 19^7. - 3 - perilous uncertainty of our own continued existence in the face of recurring world crises; our present situation thus stands in sharp contrast to the more settled world of our fore­ fathers. The fact that the professional historian has now largely replaced the antiquary and local amateur historian can be taken as reflecting the new outlook.

  • Barton Stacey Conservation Area Character Appraisal 1 Introduction
    Barton Stacey Conservation Area Character Appraisal 1 Introduction Conservation Areas A conservation area is an area designated by the local planning authority as one of special architectural or historic interest. Once designated, the local authority has a duty1 to ensure that the character of a conservation area is preserved or enhanced, particularly when considering applications for development. Purpose of Character Appraisals Local authorities are encouraged to prepare Character Appraisals, providing detailed assessments of their conservation areas. Appraisals enable the local authority to understand the elements that give each area its distinct and unique character, identifying special qualities and highlighting features of particular signifi cance. Those elements include: historic development; landscape and topography; style, type and form of the buildings, and the spaces between buildings; materials, textures, colours and detailing; and less tangible aspects, such as sounds and smells, which can contribute to the special character of the area. A Character Appraisal is intended as an overview, providing a framework within which individual planning applications can be assessed. It includes text, an appraisal plan and photographs. It is not realistic to refer to every building or feature within a conservation area – but the omission of any part does not mean that it is without signifi cance. 1 Under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. 2 2 The Barton Stacey Conservation Area Context Barton Stacey Conservation Area was originally designated on 25th April 1984 in recognition of its special architectural and historic interest. Local authorities have a duty to periodically review their conservation areas to ensure that they are still relevant and that boundaries are logical and could be defended if a planning appeal were made.

  • 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.

  • Millstones for Medieval Manors
    Millstones for Medieval Manors By DAVID L FARMER Abstract Demesne mills in medieval England obtained their millstones from many sources on the continent, in Wales, and in England. The most prized were French stones, usually fetched by cart from Southampton or ferried by river from London. Transport costs were low. Millstone prices generally doubled between the early thirteenth century and the Black Death, and doubled again in the later fourteenth century. With milling less profitable, many mills in the fourteenth century changed from French stones to the cheaper Welsh and Peak District stones, which Thames valley manors were able to buy in a large number of Midland towns and villages. Some successful south coast mills continued to buy French stones even in the fifteenth century. ICHARD Holt recently reminded us millstones were bought in a port or other that mills were at the forefront of town; demesne mills bought relatively R medieval technology and argued few at quarries. The most prized stones persuasively that windmills may have been came from France, from the Seine basin invented in late twelfth-century England.' east of Paris. In later years these were built But whether powered by water, wind, or up from segments of quartzite embedded animals, the essential of the grain mill was in plaster of Paris, held together with iron its massive millstones, up to sixteen 'hands' hoops. There is no archaeological evidence across, and for the best stones medieval that such composite stones were imported England relied on imports from the Euro- before the seventeenth century, but the pean continent.

  • Affective Criticism, Oral Poetics, and Beowulf's Fight with the Dragon
    Oral Tradition, 10/1 (1995): 54-90 Affective Criticism, Oral Poetics, and Beowulf’s Fight with the Dragon Mark C. Amodio I Affective criticism, as it has been practiced over the last few years, has come to focus upon the reader’s (or audience’s) subjective experience of a given literary work.1 Rather than examining the text qua object, affective criticism (like all subjective criticism) has abandoned the objectivism and textual reification which lay at the heart of the New Critical enterprise, striving instead to lead “one away from the ‘thing itself’ in all its solidity to the inchoate impressions of a variable and various reader” (Fish 1980:42).2 Shifting the critical focus away from the text to the reader has engendered 1 Iser, one of the leading proponents of reader-based inquiry, offers the following succinct statement of the logic underlying his and related approaches: “[a]s a literary text can only produce a response when it is read, it is virtually impossible to describe this response without also analyzing the reading process” (1978:ix). Iser’s emphasis on the reader’s role and on the constitutive and enabling functions inherent in the act of reading are shared by many other modern theorists despite their radical differences in methodologies, aims, and conclusions. See especially Culler (1982:17-83), and the collections edited by Tompkins (1980) and Suleiman and Crosman (1980). 2 The New Criticism has generally warned against inscribing an idiosyncratic, historically and culturally determined reader into a literary text because doing so would lead to subjectivism and ultimately to interpretative chaos.
