'J')IOCESE OF ELY • 763 . :Barnet the convent proceeded to elect as usual, and Henry de "\VekefiBld was then duly elected; but the pope annulled all their proceedings, and ·conferred the bishopric upon Thomas de .Arundel second son of Richard earl of Arundel, and archdeacon of Taunton who was then only 22 years of age, and a subdeacon. He was consecrated at Otford in Kent in 1374. In 1388 he was translated to the see of York, and in 1396 translated to • the see of Canterbury and died in 1414. He was a prelate of great magnificence and liberality and whilst he held the see of Ely, almost re built the bishop's palace in Holborn. John Fordham, dean of Wells and keeper of the privy seal was translated from Durham by pope Urban, VI. This appointment was considered as a kind of degradation, which how ever he was forced to accept. During his episcopate the university of Cambridge is said to have obtained of pope :Bonifice IX. a bull of ex emption from the necessity of having their chancellor-elect confirmed by the bishop of Ely, as heretofore· had been the custom from the foundation • of the -qni\ersity. Having enjoyed the see. for above 37 years he died at Downham on November 19th, 1425, and was interred in St. Mary's • • • chapel. The convent of Ely having obtained licence to proceed to • election, the king recommended to-them William Almeric, his confessor: • • • 0 the monks however made choice of their own prior, Peter -de Ely; but before he was confirmed the pope had Philip Morgan, L. L.IJ. translated from the see of Worcester. This prelate was an eminent civilian and was frequently employed in embassies into :Burgundy, France, Arragon and other parts- abroad. He died at Hatfield, October 25th 1435, and was buried according to his own appointment in the con.ventual church of the Charter house London. On the death of bishop Morgan the con vent unanimously elected John Fitzhugh bishop of London, but he dying before his translation, Lewis ile Luxemburgh, was translated from the -see ' of Rouen. He was broth8r of Peter de Luxemburgh count de St. Paul, nearly allied 'to the crown of England and had long supported the English interest in France. In 1436 he was elected archbishop of Rouen in N orinandy, but as English affairs in France were much on the decline about this time it is probable that he~ad no full enjoyment of his see on account .of the wal's. He tht;refore quitted France and came into England to enjoy the patronage of King Henry VI. to whom he steadily adhered and had given the highest proofs of disinterested loyalty. In .

Restoration and Retirement Peterhouse, Cambridge As the University of Cambridge Celebrates Its 800Th Anniversary, the Oldest College Witnesses Two Important Changes
Restoration and retirement Peterhouse, Cambridge As the University of Cambridge celebrates its 800th anniversary, the oldest college witnesses two important changes. Clive Aslet is impressed by the restoration of the college hall, and Jeremy Musson takes a farewell glance at the rooms of an eminent, now Emeritus, Fellow Photographs by Will Pryce n 1209, three scholars in Oxford were hanged for murdering a local woman. The university temporarily dispersed, and, in the diaspora, some scholars first Ifound their way to the fen town of Cambridge —an event commemorated by the university in its 800th anniversary celebrations this year. There are some (alumni of Peterhouse, for example) who might question whether the university can be said to have had substance until the scholars were organised into com- munities similar to those that they had left. As the first college, it is Peterhouse that boasts the oldest piece of fabric from Cambridge’s early days still used for its original purpose. Having begun life, inconveniently, in the Hospital of St John in about 1280, the college (Fig 1) was moved to its present site, next to Little St Mary’s church, in 1284, which is now taken as the date of its foundation. The 14 scholars—or, as we would now Fig 1: Old Court, Peterhouse, showing the 17th-century chapel and (to the right) the oriel call them, fellows—who initially comprised of the hall. The hall was first built after the college’s founder Hugo de Balsham’s death in the college were able to make use of two 1286; the oriel was added as part of an inspired restoration by G.

Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86508-1 - The Heads of Religious Houses England and Wales III, 1377-1540 Edited by David M. Smith Frontmatter More information THE HEADS OF RELIGIOUS HOUSES ENGLAND AND WALES 1377–1540 This ﬁnal volume of The Heads of Religious Houses: England and Wales takes the lists of monastic superiors from 1377 to the dissolution of the monastic houses ending in 1540 and so concludes a reference work covering 600 years of monastic history. In addition to surviving monastic archives, record sources have also been provided by episcopal and papal registers, governmental archives, court records, and private, family and estate collections. Full references are given for establishing the dates and outline of the career of each abbot or prior, abbess or prioress, when known. The lists are arranged by order: the Benedictine houses (independent; dependencies; and alien priories); the Cluniacs; the Grandmontines; the Cistercians; the Carthusians; the Augustinian canons; the Premonstratensians; the Gilbertine order; the Trinitarian houses; the Bonhommes; and the nuns. An intro- duction discusses the use and history of the lists and examines critically the sources on which they are based. david m. smith is Professor Emeritus, University of York. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86508-1 - The Heads of Religious Houses England and Wales III, 1377-1540 Edited by David M.

Church, Crown and Complaint: Petitions from Bishops to the English Crown in the Fourteenth Century
CHURCH, CROWN AND COMPLAINT: PETITIONS FROM BISHOPS TO THE ENGLISH CROWN IN THE FOURTEENTH CENTURY MATTHEW PHILLIPS Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy DECEMBER 2013 Abstract This thesis explores the interaction of bishops with both the English crown and members of late medieval society more generally by focusing on petitions and the supplicatory strategies adopted by bishops in their endeavours to secure legal remedy. Aside from revealing that bishops were often indistinguishable from lay petitioners in terms of the content of their petitions, with many of their complaints arising from their role as great landlords and tenants-in-chief rather than relating to the exercise of episcopal office, this research has also demonstrated that distinct supplicatory cultures separated the clergy from the laity. Notably, whereas petitions from lay supplicants often incorporated crown-alignment rhetoric into their petitions, thereby mirroring the language of ‘common profit’ found in common petitions, petitions from bishops reflected the supplicatory character of the clerical gravamina and presented requests for the exclusive interest of the church. As such, petitions from bishops, alongside the clerical gravamina, encapsulated a set of values, manifest through the use of language and rhetoric, which sought to assert the institutional independence of the church. Yet, despite being part of a supplicatory culture which sought to defend church autonomy and ecclesiastical jurisdictional integrity, the petitionary system in England sapped the supplicatory strength of the clergy and reduced their ability to defend their autonomy in the face of royal demands. Acknowledgements I am extremely grateful to the AHRC for providing three years of doctoral funding, without which this project would not have been possible.

A STUDY of SELECTED CLERICAL CHARACTERS in SHAKESPEARE's HISTORY PLAYS By
"I AM LEFT OUT" A STUDY OF SELECTED CLERICAL CHARACTERS IN SHAKESPEARE'S HISTORY PLAYS by ANTHONY ROBERT BOYD-WILLIAMS A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY Department of English School of Humanities The University of Birmingham September 2002 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This thesis discusses some of the clerics who feature in Shakespeare's Histories. The introduction suggests that such characters, either individually or as a group, have by and large been ignored when Shakespeare's characters i are considered for serious and sustained discussion in academic or theatrical circles and argues that this should now be readdressed. The following four chapters each consider a particular cleric or clerics. The characters under scrutiny are the Bishop of Winchester in The First Part of King Henry VI and The Second Part of King Henry VI, the Bishop of Carlisle in Richard II, Cardinal Pandulph in King John, concluding with the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of Ely in Henry V. Each chapter commences with an account of the original historical personage as consideration is being given to figures who originated as actual human beings, and there is an exploration in each of the process of creation of the characters right back to their ultimate beginnings (and via Shakespeare's immediate sources, the Tudor historians).

The Lincolnshire Gentry and the Wars of the Roses
The Lincolnshire Gentry and the Wars of the Roses Jonathan S. Mackman D.Phil. Thesis University of York Department of History August 1999 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the impact of the Wars of the Roses upon the people, government and landed structure of a hitherto under-studied shire. It is intended as a bridge between the numerous post-McFarlanite county studies of recent years and the specific issue of the Wars, a conflict generally approached from a central perspective. It begins by examining Lincolnshire's landed society during the later Lancastrian period, stressing the county's political isolation, the sheer size and collective wealth of its population, but also the lack of any dominant political force. It examines the nature of local government, particularly the changing social profile of local officers, and also the issue of local violence. In particular, it highlights the effects of faction and manipulation of justice in an otherwise relatively law-abiding county, and the influence of the shires upon the descent into warfare. The thesis then addresses Lincolnshire's experience of the Wars themselves, particularly stressing the limited participation of the resident population. The Lincolnshire Rebellion of 1470 is described in detail, this shadowy episode being carefully reconstructed in order to gain a fuller understanding of its importance. This is then tied in with a discussion of how the Wars had only a limited effect on Lincolnshire's social and landed structures, yet radically altered its relationship with the Crown. It highlights the tension between the established order and the Yorkist administrative elite, and the way this became embodied in a local power-struggle which, it is argued, led to the Rebellion and ultimately contributed to Edward IV's own deposition.

Anonymous Sources Referred to in the Text of Holinshed's Chronicles
ANONYMOUS SOURCES REFERRED TO IN THE TEXT OF HOLINSHED’S CHRONICLES This list contains written sources of all kinds, both records and works by unidentified authors. It also includes works that are presented as anonymous, even when it has been possible to identify their authors. But as far as possible it excludes material taken directly from the writings of others, except when it is presented in terms implying independent research. Even less than in the previous two lists has it been possible to identify every source cited. So corrections and supplementary information will be received with particular gratitude. Henry Summerson September 2009 Volume I p. 13: `a treatise...written by a chaplaine to king Edward the Confessour, in the hands of John Stow...’ – the Vita Ædwardi Regis, which now survives only in BL, MS Harley 526, fols. 38-57. The latter is not known to have been in Stow’s possession, but there is evidence for the survival of another copy of this text in the keeping of Stow, who seems to have had transcripts made from it for his own use. See note on 4/811-12 below. p. 17: `the histories of Brabant’ – unidentified. p. 27: `the gests of Fowkes de Warren’: a version closely related to that in BL, MS Royal xii, c. xii fols. 33-60v, but seemingly differing in details. p. 46: `Legendarie of Excester’ – presumably a text akin to that published as The South- English Legendary, ed.
