SECOND EDITION REVISED AND ENLARGED LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO. 39 PATERNOSTER ROW, LONDON FOURTH AVENUE & 30th STREET, NEW YORK BOMBAY, CALCUTTA, AND MADRAS I9I5 All rights reaerved I- c Digitized by Microsoft® Digitized by Microsoft® PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION Charles Gross, Gurney Professor of History and Political Science in Harvard University, died after prolonged illness on December 3, 1909. Almost up to the last moment he had clung to the hope that he might live to prepare a second edition of his monumental work on the Sources and Literature of English History, for which, ever since the publication of the first edition in the year 1900, he had been steadily collecting material. His lamented death, everywhere recognised as an irreparable loss to historical scholarship, seemed to render impossible, or to postpone indefinitely, the realisation of his plan. His colleagues of the historical department at Harvard, however, were unwilHng to allow the matter to drop, and early in 1910 appointed a committee with power to communicate with the publishers and with the family of Professor Gross in regard to the practicability of carrying out his design. The response from both sides was heartily in favour of the attempt. The family, represented by Messrs. Marks and Henry Gross of Troy, New York, accepted the financial responsibility of bringing the editorial part of the work to completion as an affectionate tribute to the memory of their distinguished brother. The publishers on their part showed every willingness to further the project. The services of Miss A. F. Rowe, of Cambridge, who had assisted in preparing the manuscript for the first edition, were secured, and the work was begun. It is Digitized by Microsoft® vi Preface to the Second Edition largely to Miss Rowe's intelligent skill, devoted labour, and scrupulous fidelity to Professor Gross's intentions that the present edition owes whatever measure of completeness and accuracy it may claim. As the work progressed, many difficulties of detail presented themselves, the solution of which required an amount of time and attention which men who were more than busy in other ways could give in scattered fragments only. The continued appearance of new books also made it imperative that some definite point of conclusion should be set, if the work were not to drag on beyond the period of usefulness. It was therefore determined to fix the end of the year 1910 as the terminus beyond which no attempt at completeness should be made. Only continuations and such notable books or articles as were specially called to the attention of the committee have been included after that date. The editors were aware that Professor Gross, partly of his own motion and partly as the result of friendly suggestion, would probably have made certain changes in the arrangement of the material ; but they did not feel at liberty to undertake such alterations except in rare instances and where the general plan would not thereby be affected. Such a change, for example, has been made in the section on Local Records (§ 57), where the works relating to each county are now arranged under a separate head. A distinct addition has been made in the insertion of § 4d, which comprises works relating to Celtic philology. It is probable also that the author would have made certain omissions, notably of the older literature ; but here again the editors have not ventured to use their own judgment. On the other hand, it did not seem to them likely that Professor Gross would have adopted the suggestion made Digitized by Microsoft® Preface to the Second Edition vii by some well-wishers that he shoiild increase the proportion of titles primarily referring to other countries but containing matter of interest to students of English history. Such additions would certainly have enlarged the volume far beyond the limits which its author contemplated, and the editors have therefore made no attempt in this direction. In accordance with Dr. Gross's plan, the numbering of the old titles has in the main been retained, with sub-nimierals employed for new titles. In matters of typography also, including the perplexing subject of capitalisation, the editors have followed the author's practice without change. They realise fully that, since Professor Gross was not able to make a final revision of his material, old or new, their work must be subject to chances of error and omission for which they have to ask indulgence. The committee have been helped by the cordial co-opera- tion of their colleagues, Professors G. L. Kittredge, F. N. Robinson, and, especially, H. L. Gray of Harvard Univer- sity, and of Professor J. F. Baldwin of Vassar College. They are under great obMgation to Professor T. F. Tout of Victoria University, Manchester, and to Dr. G. T. Lapsley, fellow and lecturer at Trinity College, Cambridge, England, who have been good enough to read the proof of the entire volume. Professor Tout particularly has shown the greatest interest in the undertaking, and has spared no pains to make it a success, as have also the Messrs. Longmans by their unfailing patience and ready assistance at every step of the way. For the Department of History in Harvard University, Ephraim Emerton Charles H. Haskins Edwin F. Gay Committee.

Digitized by Microsoft® Digitized by Microsoft® PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION Attention has often been called to the need of ,9. good bibHography of Enghsh history .1 There has bee'n a de- plorable waste of time and energy in historical inveltigation, because the hterature of Enghsh history has so long re- mained unarranged and unanalysed, and therefore students have often been obhged to grope their way through unclassi- fied catalogues in a futile search for bibhographical informa- tion. ' In this respect,' says Mr. H. R. Tedder, in the Library Chronicle, 1886, iii. 185, ' we are stiff^in arrear of almost every other civilised country. ... It is a slur upon Enghsh bibliography and upon Enghsh historical research that "our island story," told in so many ways and by so many writers, should be yet without an adequate record of its hterature.' In a paper read before the Royal Historical Society (Transactions, 1897, xi. 19-30) Mr. Frederic Harrison also emphasises the need of a treatise which should aid students of English history in some such way as the bibho- graphies of Dahlmann-Waitz and Monod aid students of German and French history. Mr. Tedder and Mr. Harrison both demand, however, that the proposed bibliography, urJike those of Dahlmann-Waitz and Monod, should give some account of the contents and a brief estimate of the ' For existing bibliographies, see below, § 2- Digitized by Microsoft® X Preface to the First Edition value of the books named ; and they agree in asserting that the labour of preparing such a treatise can be successfully undertaken only by some method of co-operation on the part of various experts. But a co-operative scheme of this sort is difficult to initiate and to carry out ; and, as no such scheme has as yet been undertaken, I have ventured to put forth a bibhography of that part of the subject which extends from the earhest times to 1485. The main object of this Preface is to explain the scope and arrangement of the volume. The book contains a systematic survey of the printed materials relating to the poUtical, constitutiond, legal, social, and economic history of England, Wales, and Ireland. The manuscript materials are dealt with only incidentally ; in this branch of the subject we already have some good guides, like T. D. Hardy and S. R. Scargill Bird.^ Scotland has been omitted, because in the middle ages her government and institutions were foreign to those of England ; but so far as Scotland influenced the current of EngUsh history she has received consideration. Even within the above-mentioned limits, this bibliography does not profess to be exhaustive : it comprises only select lists of books ; worthless and obsolete treatises are omitted, except in the case of a few recent works which are mentioned merely in order that the student may be warned to shun them. Greater fulness has been sought in the sections dealing with the original sources, and it is hoped that no printed source of prime importance has been over- looked. Besides books and pamphlets, the work includes a selection of papers found in collective essays, in journals, and in the transactions of societies ; many valuable treasures lie buried in these by-ways of literature. An effort has also 1 See Nos. 45, 459. For the archives, see §§ I2, 13. Pt. iv. also contains many calendars and catalogues of public and local records. Digitized by Microsoft® Preface to the First Edition xi been made to include all continental books, pamphlets, and papers that are of any value to students of English history. Throughout the work the task of selection has been a difficult one ; it is a labour which no scholar could perform without exposing himself to the accusation of having committed some errors of judgment. The bibliographies mentioned in § 2 and in other sections wiU furnish the student with many of the titles of books which I have deemed it expedient to omit from my Usts. A glance at the table of contents will show that the materials of English history comprised in this book are systematically and chronologically classified. Part i. includes general or introductory subjects : methodology, bibliographical helps, periodical publications, the studies auxiliary to history (dictionaries, gazetteers, peerages, etc.), the archives in the Public Record Office and other repositories, general collections of chroniclers and records (the publications of the Record Commission, the Rolls Series, record societies, etc.), and the general treatises of modern writers. Part ii. deals with the authorities for the early history of Britain to the close of the Roman occupation ; Parts iii. and iv. relate to Anglo-Saxon times and the period 1066- 1485 respectively. In Part ii. separate sections, and in Parts iii. and iv. separate chapters, are concerned with modern writers. The separation of the sources from the modern literature doubtless has its dis- advantages, but it could not be avoided without seriously impairing other parts of the classification. It is hoped that any defects in the arrangement of the work may be atoned for, in part at least, by the full index, the numerous cross- references, and the tables in Appendix D. Many of the titles in my lists are accompanied by brief notes explaining the contents of the books and estimating b3 Digitized by Microsoft® xii Preface to the First Edition their value. These notes are supplemented by the prelimi- nary remarks which will be found at the beginning of the sections and subsections. Mr. Frederic Harrison rightly asserts that ' just as a real history is not a series of annals, so a real bibliography is not a mere catalogue of books.' To gauge the value of one treatise as compared with others, in a bibliography which embraces an enormous mass of literature relating to a wide range of subjects, is, however, a delicate and hazardous undertaking, which no one can perform with complete success. Still, it is better to give an inadequate commentary than to allow students to grope in utter darkness. The book is the outcome of an annual course of lectures on the sources and literature of English history delivered at Harvard University from 1890 to 1899. In 1893 arrangements were made for its publication, and during the past three years it has occupied all the time that I could snatch from my academic duties. Though the work is the fruit of much labour, I am painfully conscious of its shortcomings ; but I hope that it will help to smooth the path of teachers and students of English history. Finally, I wish to express my obligation to the many friends who have kindly aided me ; it is difficult to name those who have been most helpful. I am also grateful to the officials of the British Museum Library and the Society of Antiquaries of London for their courtesy and kindness. C. G. July I, 1900. Digitized by Microsoft® Preface to the First Edition xiii NOTE. An asterisk (*) is prefixed to the titles of works which are particularly important for the study of English history. A dagger (f) is prefixed to titles of works which the compiler has not been able to examine. i Most of the titles are presented in abbreviated form. The number of pages when less than one hundred is usually indicated. The tables of contents appended to titles of books do not profess to be exhaustive. The page references in such tables are usually to the latest edition mentioned. In most of the sections dealing with the sources all the printed editions of each work are given, or attention is called to books in which they may be found. Usually onJ^the.,_first and last editions of modern writers are named. The same topic may be dealt with in various parts of the book ; therefore the reader should not neglect to use the index. Corrections or additions, sent to the publishers, will be welcomed. 1 In the new edition the daggers have been removed, since Professor Gross saw none of the books published after 1909.

These are called by the Germans ' Hiilfs- wissenschaften,' and by the French 'sciences auxiliaires.' Freeman (No. 7) calls them ' the satellites of history.' Their relations to history are well explained in Bernheim's Lehrbuch (No. 2), 5th edition, 279-323. For the hterature of the subjects, see ibid. ; Meister (No. iia) ; Jahresberichte (No. 22) ; and the bibliographies of Dahlmann-Waitz and Monod (Nos. 28, 31). § 4. PHILOLOGY : DICTIONARIES AND GLOSSARIES. a. English, Nos. 188-99. b. French, Nos. 200-209. c. Latin, Nos. 210-15. d. Celtic, Nos. iisa-n. This section includes only those works which are of most service to students of English history. There is a useful cata- logue of glossaries, etc., in W. W. Skeat's Etymological Dictionary of the English Language, new edition, Oxford, 1910, pp. xxx.-xli. In seeking the meanings of old words the historian is fre- quently thrown upon his own resources, for the existing diction- aries, especially of Low Latin and Anglo-French, are very in- complete. Help is often afforded by the brief glossaries appended to many of the volumes of the RoUs Series (for example, the Monumenta Gildhallae, and the works of Higden, Pecock, Robert of Gloucester, and Robert of Brunne), or by the glossaries in the publications of the Selden and Surtees societies and in such works as Stevenson's Records of Nottingham, Hohlbaum's Hansisches Urkundenbuch, vol. iii..

Manuals and Treatises, Nos. 226-50. 6. Facsimiles, Nos. 251-66. Palaeography is the study of the handwriting of former ages. Diplomatics is the study of the construction or constituent parts of records whereby we are enabled to determine their age and authenticity or historical value. ' Le paleographe,' says Leon Gautier, ' 6tudie le corps des chartes, le diplomatiste en etudie I'ame.' Mabillon was the founder of the science of diplomatics ; and the greatest English diplomatist was George Hickes, whose monumental work (No. 234), as well as the whole subject of diplomatics, has been sadly neglected in England. In general, Hickes accepts the critical canons laid down by Mabillon, but combats some of the latter's views. Madox, Kemble, and Hardy (Nos. 238, 1419, 2108) contributed to our knowledge of charters ; and recently scholars like Round, Maitland, Miss Bateson, and Stevenson have begun to deal with records in a thoroughly scientific manner. The list given below is fairly complete as regards the books produced in England, but comprises only a selection of the best continental works. For additions to this list, see Giry, Manuel, 37-50 ; E. D. Grand, Legon d'Ouverture du Cours de Pal4ographie (Montpellier, 1890), 15-24 ; Prou, Manuel, 3-12 ; Thompson, Introduction, 571-83 (poorly arranged) ; and the periodical reports of Bresslau, Wattenbach, and Tangl in the Jahresberichte (No. 22) since 1879. -^ good short account of the literature will be found in Wattenbach's Schriftwesen, 1-39. For useful bibliographies, see Bulletin of the John Rylands Library (Man- chester, 1903), i. 67-79 ' ^^^ ^- P- Moore's Two Select Biblio- graphies of Mediaeval Historical Study (London, 1912), 29-70. The best general work on palaeography is Wattenbach's Digitized by Microsoft® 42 General Authorities : Auxiliaries [pari i Schriftwesen ; the best manual in English is Thompson's ; for practical purposes the most useful handbook is Prou's. There are convenient summaries of palaeography and diplomatics in Meister's Grundriss (No. iia.) A good introduction to the study of these subjects is Poole's essay on the Teaching of Palseography and Diplomatic, in Essays on the Teaching of History (No. 5). New light has been thrown upon the history of writing, especially in the early Middle Ages, by the studies of Traube, collected in his Vorlesungen und Abhandlungen, vols, i.-ii., Munich, 1909-11. For the abbreviated forms of Latin words, and the signs of con- traction, the works of Cappelli, Chassant, Martin, and Walther are particularly useful ; see also the lists of contracted words in T. D. Hardy's Registrum Dunelmense (RoUs Series, 1878), vol. iv., and the Pipe RoU Society's Introduction to the Study of the Pipe RoUs, 1884. The best treatises on diplomatics are those of Bresslau and Giry. W. H. Stevenson has some interest- ing remarks concerning the early history of the English chancery in the English Historical Review, 1896, xi. 731-44 ; he rejects the view of Aronius (No. 141 0), Giry, and others, that there was no chancery in the Anglo-Saxon period. On all such matters, reference should now be made to Hall's Studies (No. 2338). Cf. Wolfgang Keller, Angelsachsische Palaeographie, 2 pts.

Facsimiles of Welsh and Irish MSS. will be found in the Series of Welsh Texts edited by John Rhys and J. G. Evans, Oxford, 1887, etc. (The Text of the Bruts from the Red Book of Hergest, The Text of the Book of Llan Dav, etc., Nos. 1374, 1728, 2674), notably Facsimile of the Black Book of Carmarthen, 1888 (' diplomatic ' reproduction Digitized by Microsoft® 46 General Authorities: Auxiliaries [past i of the same MS., Pwllheli, 1906) ; and in various other ' books,' like the Book of Leinster, published by the Royal Irish Academy. Most of the following collections are elaborate and expensive. Those published by the English Ordnance Survey (Nos. 256, 258, 260-62) are marred by many inaccu- racies. For fuller lists of facsimiles, see Gabriel Meier's Die Fortschritte der Palaeographie mit Hilfe der Photographic, in Centralblatt fiir Bibliothekswesen, 1900, xvii. 1-32, 113-30, 191-8, 255-78; [Henri Omont], Listes des Recueils de Fac- similes et des Reproductions de Manuscrits conserves k la BibKoth^que Nationale, in Revue des BibliothSques, 1903, xiii. 111-178 (also, re-arranged alphabetically by authors, in Bulletin de la Soci6te Fran^aise de Reproductions de Manu- scrits El Peintures, Paris, 1911; 2nd edition, separately printed, 1912) ; and Poupardin and Prou, Liste des Recueils de Fac- simile de Chartes, in Actes du Congrls International pour la Reproduction des Manuscrits, des Monnaies, et des Sceaux (Brussels, 1905), 217-57.

The Society of Antiquaries of London has continued these surveys as a series of separate publications, which now includes William Harrison's Lancashire, 1896, J. O.

In October, 1908, a royal commission was appointed to make • an inventory of the Ancient and Historical Monuments and Constructions connected with or illustrative of the con- temporary culture, civilisation, and conditions of life of the people in England, excluding Monmouthshire, from the earliest time to the year 1700,' and to specify those which seemed most worthy of preservation. This commission, styled the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments and Constructions of England, printed with its first report, in 1910 (see Pari. Papers, 1910, vol. xxxvi.), an inventory of the historical monuments in Hertfordshire, and in 1912-13 it pub- lished an inventory of Buckinghamshire in two volumes. A similar commission for Wales and Monmouthshire, appointed a few months earlier than the English one, also made its first report in 1910, and published an inventory of the county,^ of Montgomery in 1911, of Flint in 1912, and of Radnor in 1913. A like commission for Scotland has reported on Berwickshire (1909), Sutherland (191 1), Caithness (191 1), Wigtown (191 2), and Kirkcudbrightshire (1914). a. ANTIQUITIES. 393. Akerman, J. Y.

PUBLIC RECORD OFFICE AND HISTORY OF PUBLIC RECORDS. Owing mainly to the blessings of insularity and to the absence of violent domestic revolutions, the national archives of England are older, richer, more continuous, and more nearly complete than those of any other European nation. When we consider their neglect, migrations, and vicissitudes in modern times, it is indeed marvellous that so much has been spared. Before the thirteenth century there was probably no separate record of&ce in England. The royal muniments were safeguarded with the regaha, money chests, and saintly reUcs in the various royal treasuries ; and the exchequer buildings, together with the neigh- bouring chapter house of Westminster, continued to be the great repositories of fiscal and judicial records until the nineteenth century. Since the thirteenth century the Tower of London had been the chief repository for the chancery records, i.e. the enrolments of charters, patents, statutes, and many other docu- ments that were drawn up under the supervision of the chancellor, the chief secretary of state for all departments. In the four- teenth and fifteenth centuries much of the chancellor's work was performed by the keeper of the roUs of chancery (later called master of the roUs) at the Rolls Chapel Office, where from 1 Richard III. most of the chancery records were permanently preserved. In modem times the State Paper Office and many other repositories were established. Hardy, in his Memoirs of Lord Langdale, ii. 112, 143, says that there were more than sixty such record offices in London before the reign of Victoria. Prynne, in the dedication to his Brevia Parliamentaria Redi- viva, laments that the records in the Tower ' had for many years by past layen buried in one confused chaos under corroding, Digitized by Microsoft® 78 General Authorities : Archives, etc. [pari i putrifying cobwebs, dust [and] filth ; ' and he tells us that he proceeded to ' rake up this dung-heap. ' In the eigh teenth century various parliamentary committees complained of the neglected condition of the pubhc archives : see Nos. 485-6. In the year 1800 there was an exhaustive investigation of the subject (No. 487), which in the same year resulted in the creation of the first Record Commission of Great Britain, ' to provide for the better arrangement, preservation, and more convenient use of the said records.' New commissions were issued in 1806, 1817, 1821, 1825, and 1831 ; the sixth and last expired in 1837. During the thirty-seven years of their activity the commissioners spent much money in printing the records of England, Wales, and Scotland (see No. 538), but accomplished very little for their care and preservation. The editorial work of the publications was severely criticised ; charges of corruption and jobbery were freely made and answered. Cooper, Nicolas, and Palgrave (Nos. 461, 476-8, 480, 2004) were particularly prominent in these acrimonious personal dissensions. See also Nos. 472, 488-9 ; and the pamphlets, magazines, etc., mentioned in Lowndes's BibUographer's Manual (No. 58), 2063-4, and in Thomas's Notes (No. 497), app. H, I. In 1836 a committee of the house of commons made an elaborate report on the affairs of the Record Commission (No. 488), calling attention to the unsafe and filthy condition of many valuable muniments. As a result of the recommendations contained in this report, the commission was allowed to expire in 1837, after having issued its general report (No. 489). In 1838 the Public Record Act, i & 2 Vict. c. 94, was passed, ' to establish one Record Office and a better custody, and to allow the free use of the said records.' It put the master of the rolls, Lord Langdale, in charge of all the public records, empowered the treasury to provide a suitable building for their custody, created a deputy keeper of the pubUc records, who since 1840 has issued valuable annual reports (No. 491), and ordained that the term ' pubhc records ' should ' be taken to mean all rolls, records, writs, books, proceedings, decrees, warrants, accounts, papers, and documents whatsoever of a public nature belonging to His Majesty ' (Pike. Public Records, 9). In 1856- 59 most of the ancient muniments were removed from their various repositories to the present Public Record Office, in Fetter Lane, where much attention has been devoted to their arrange- ment g,nd preservation, and where investiga,tors find.the privilege of using the national records as free from restrictions as in any Digitized by Microsoft® § 12] Public Records 79 other country of Europe. In October, 1910, a Royal Commission was appointed to ' inquire and report ' as to the working of the Public Record Act, the arrangements now in operation for the collection, control, custody, and preservation of public records in England and Wales, the custody of local records of a public nature, the training of archivists, etc. Its first report was pubUshed in 191 2. There used to be separate collections of records for the various extraordinary, or palatine, jurisdictions in England, such as Durham, Lancashire, Cheshire, Cornwall, and Wales ; but the archives of Cheshire and Wales were removed to the Public Record Office about sixty years ago, and those of Durham and the duchy of Lancaster about forty years ago (see No. 2296 and p. 546). Some of the records of the duchy of Cornwall are still in charge of the duchy office in London. Ireland and Scotland have separate record offices. The Irish Record Commission (No. 490) was created in 1810 and expired in 1830. In' 1867 provision was made for a general record repository at Dublin, and since 1869 the deputy keeper of the public records in Ireland has issued annual reports (No. 492). For the history of the records of Ireland, see No. 457. There is no adequate history of the English records and their repositories. The best accounts will be found in the works of Edwards, Hall, and Thomas ; see also Nos. 458, 462-8, 485-8. There is no book in English like Franz von Loher's Archivlehre, Grundziige der Geschichte, Aufgaben, etc., unserer Archive, 1890 ; or Hke Langlois and Stein's Les Archives de I'Histoire de France (No. 471). The offtcial guide to the public records is Scargill Bird's : No. 459. Rye (No. 310) gives much useful information. Many valuable calendars, Usts, and indexes of records have been printed (see No. 473 and § 53), and many manuscript indexes are accessible in the Pubhc Record Office. 457. Archivist.

Digitized by Microsoft® 92 Chapter IV PRINTED COLLECTIONS OF SOURCES Under this head are included both chroniclers and records. For works dealing with their history, see §§ 2, 12. Much was accompUshed in the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries by Parker, Twysden, Savile, Hearne,. and other editors (§ 16a) to make the texts of the medieval chroniclers of England more accessible to students ; but their works, judged by our present canons of criticism, were unscholarly. In 1823 the Record Commission entrusted to Henry Petrie the task of editing a new collection of chronicles and other materials of English history extending to the close of Henry VII. 's reign. The work was to comprise about twenty-five volumes. After all the text of the first volume had been prepared and materials had been gathered for other volumes, the work was suspended, in 1835, by order of the commissioners, and volume i. was not published until 1848 (No. 537). In 1855 the master of the rolls. Sir John Romilly, obtained permission to publish the well-known Calendars of State Papers, and in 1857 he was authorised to undertake the series of Chronicles and Memorials (No. 539). The plan of Petrie's Monumenta was abandoned, and it was determined to treat each chronicle or collection of documents as a separate work complete in itself, and to confide it to a competent editor. This series now includes most of the prominent chroniclers of England, and some of them are admirably edited. In 1896 the master of the rolls ceased to undertake new publications of texts, and is now devoting the money at his disposal mainly to the printing of calendars of records. The Rolls Series (which technically includes all the series published by the master of rolls, but in ordinary phrase has come to be applied specifically to the Chronicles and Memorials) has given a new impulse to the study of English history. Its success in this and other directions has in the main been in marked contrast with that of the Record Commissioners' publications (No. 538). Digitized by Microsoft® § u] Publications of the English Government 93 Apart from these two series the English government, in the eighteenth century, provided for the pubHcation of R3mier's Fcedera, Domesday Book, and the Rolls of Parliament ; a commission created in 1825 issued the State Papers of Henry VIII. 's Reign (11 vols., 1830-52) ; and three volumes of extracts from the issue rolls were published in 1835-37 under the direction of the comptroller of the receipt of the exchequer (Nos. 1933-3). The services which the government has rendered to historical students have been supplemented by the efforts of learned societies (§ 15). The English Historical Society, the Caxton Society, and the Anglia Christiana Society accomplished some good work in the second quarter of the nineteenth century, but perished from lack of support. The Surtees Society and the Camden Society, established in 1834 and 1838 respectively, have published many volumes of chronicles and records. Within the past thirty years the Pipe Roll Society, the Selden Society, the Canterbury and York Society, and various local record societies have done much to make the sources more accessible. § 14.

Many of these older editions of the chroniclers have been superseded by the editions in the Rolls Series (No. 539), but in some cases (e.g. Roger of Wendover, No. 1864) they continue to be the better. For details concerning the works mentioned in the brief tables of contents appended to the titles given below, see §§ 34, 48. Some small collections of chroniclers for the period 1066-1485 will be found in § 48a. Translated extracts from English chronicles bearing on Scottish history, a.d. 500-1286, are printed in A. O. Anderson's Scottish Annals from English Chroniclers, London, 1908. Sir A. C. Lawrie's Annals of the Reigns of Malcolm and William, Kings of Scotland, 1153-1214, Glasgow, 1910, also contains extracts (not translated) from English chronicles. See too Hilda Johnstone's Hundred Years of English History, 1216-1327, London, 1912. The contents of continental collections that contain chronicles which throw light on English history may be learned from Potthast's Bibliotheca (No. 25). Another series containing English material is the Collection de Textes pour servir a I'Etude et a I'Enseignement de I'Histoire, Paris, 1886, etc. This series includes Matzke's Lois de GuiUaume le Conqu^rant, Mandrot's edition of the M^moires of Philippe de Comines, B^mont's Chartes des Libertes Anglaises, Cosneau's Grands Trait^s de la Guerre de Cent Ans (Nos. 1407, 1757, 2013, 2118a) ; Annales Gandenses (1296-1310), Chronique Artesienne (1295-1304), and Chronique Tournaisienne (1296-1314), all edited by Frantz Funck-Brentano, 1896-99 ; and Recueil d' Annales Angevines et Vend6moises, edited by Louis Halphen, 1903. 573.

Although the ' lives ' of saints are filled with miracles and in- credible stories, they form a rich mine of information concerning the life and customs of the people. Some of them are ' memorials of the best men of the time written by the best scholars of the time ' ; and certain saints, like Dunstan, Anselm, and Becket, were men of political prominence, whose biographies throw light on contemporary history. For some parts of the Anglo-Saxon period this legendary lore is almost the only historical material at our disposal. On the value of saints' lives, see Hardy, Cata- logue of Materials (No. 45), vol. i. pp. xvii.-xxxvi. ; Froude, Short Studies, ist series ; W. H. Hutton, Influence of Christianity upon National Character Illustrated in the Lives of English Saints, London, [1903], 2nd edition, [1908] ; and the valuable paper of Hippolyte Delehaye, Les L^gendes Hagiographiques, in Revue des Questions Historiques, 1903, Ixxiv. 56-122, printed separately at Brussels, 1905 (2nd edition, 1906), and translated by V.

Some of the most important of the older works concerning English institutions were written on the continent, where the English constitution was regarded as a model worthy to be studied and copied. The most eminent of these writers were Digitized by Microsoft® 122 General Authorities : Modern Writers [pabtt Montesquieu, L'Esprit des Lois, bk. xi., 1748 ; De Lolme, Con- stitution de I'Angleterre, 1771 ; and Von Vincke, Darstellung der Innern Verwaltung Grossbritanniens, 1815. Judged by our present standard of criticism, all these works are rather super- ficial. Early in the last century De Lolme's book and the historical sketch in Blackstone's Commentaries seem to have been the leading authorities on English constitutional history. They were, however, in large part superseded by Hallam's View of the State of Europe (No. 640) r Palgrave and Kemble did much to stimulate research, but their investigations related mainly to the Anglo-Saxon period. The treatises of Gneist and Stubbs have a wider range, and are the best general authorities on the medieval institutions of England. Gneist was led to the study of the subject by the desire to ascertain what there was in the English constitution which Prussia might safely copy ; he wished to show the futility of attempting to establish parlia- mentary government in Prussia without a good substructure of local and provincial institutions, and he believed that Germany could learn much concerning administration and self-goverimient from a careful study of English history. 638.

Ashworth : The history of the English constitution. 2 vols. London, 1886 ; 2nd edition, 1889 ; another edition, i vol., 1891. This is a sort of digest of Gneist's more detailed works on English history. His books lack unity of design, and often overlap one another. Without examining all of them the reader cannot be sure that he has before him in a given volume all that Gneist wrote on a particular subject ; much that is found in one treatise may be omitted in a. later edition, or may be repeated in another work. For example, the 3rd edition of the Communalverfassung appears under a new title, and omits the valuable account of the history of self-government which is contained in the earlier editions. The basis of all his works on English institutions is Das Heutige Englische Verfassungs- und Verwaltungsrecht, 3 pts., Berlin, 1857-63. The 2nd edition of one part of this is called Das Englische Verwaltungs- recht, 1867 ; 3rd edition, 1883-84. The 2nd edition of the other part Digitized by Microsoft® § 17] General Treatises 123 is entitled Communaiverfassung, 1863 ; 3rd edition, SeW-Government, Communal verfassung und Verwaltungsgerichte, 1871 ; French transla- tion by Theodore Hippert, entitled La. Constitution Communale de I'Angle- terre, 6 vols., Paris, 1868-70. His history of parliament. Das Englische Parlament (No. 668), contains many pages taken, verbatim or in the form of abstracts, from the Verfassungsgeschichte. Gneist strongly emphasises the development of administration in England from below upward, the aristocratic tendencies of English self- government, and the important part played by the gentry in local and central affairs. ^ 640.

Selden still remains the most exhaustive and best authority on the history of tithes, though recent investigation has corrected some of his views, as, for example, his interpretation of Ethel- wulf 's donation. The tone of most of the other works mentioned below is controversial. Clarke upholds the ancient tripartite division of tithes among the clergy, the church fabric, and the poor ; this view is opposed by Easterby, Fuller, Hale, Selborne, and other recent authorities. 773.

Dugdale (No. 613) is the best authority on the history of par- ticular reUgious houses, and Tanner's Notitia is a useful work of reference. Dugdale is now supplemented by sections in the Victoria county histories (No. 839). The best general accounts are those of Eckenstein, Fosbroke, Hill, and Montalembert. Fosbroke gives the fullest account of the inner life of English monasteries ; Pearson, in his Historical Maps (No. 366), gives a brief exposition, with a map and lists of religious houses. See also the introduction to Stubbs's edition of Epistolse Cantuarienses, Rolls Series (No. 2220) ; and Poole's Atlas (No. 367). A good short survey of the general history of monasticism in Europe will be found in Otto Zockler's Askese und Monchthum, 2nd edition, 2 vols. , Frankfort, 1897 ; and a bibliography, in No. 26.

Trenholme is preparing a history of English monastic boroughs. There is an excellent chapter on craft gilds in Ashley's Economic History (No. 1193), and a detailed account of the gild merchant in Gross's treatise (No. 824). On general manorial history the student should consult Pollock and Maitland's EngUsh Law, Maitland's Domesday Book, Vino- gradoff' s Villainage, and Seebohm's Village Community : Nos. 657, 1222, 1493, 3054. The best general work on castles is Clark's (No. 426), which is supplemented by the works of Armitage; Round, and Mackenzie (Nos. 4220;, 435«, 829) ; see also the lists of castles in Pearson's Maps (No. 366), 42-49. The general treatises on the forests are enumerated in § ig, and those on church history in § 23. There is a vast literature relating to particular counties, churches, towns, manors, castles, and forests. Though many of these books contain valuable matter, few display much scholarly research in dealing with local institutions. The best county histories are httle more than great storehouses of crude material concerning particular churches, manors, and boroughs, inter- spersed with considerable genealogical information. In the lists given below, § 24b, an effort has been made to enumerate those works which throw most light on institutional development or which contain valuable records.

F.

Carnhuanawc's [Thomas Price's] Hanes Cymry (Crughywel, 1842) had some vogue. Woodward (No. 1121) added nothing to the stock of knowledge, nor did Miss WilUams (No. 1120), who is, however, concise and accurate. A more ambitious work than any of these is Hanes y Br3d:aniaid a'r Cymry, by Gweirydd ap Rhys [Robert John Pryse], 2 vols., London, [1873-76]. The most useful recent histories are those by Lloyd (No. 1113a) and Rhys and Jones (No. 1115).

'Archaeology has much to tell us concerning it [the period of the Roman occupation], but history is almost altogether silent. A few sections of Dion Cassius, some confused notices in the Historia Augusta, a page or two of Ammianus Marcellinus, are practically all that is left to us of the written history of our country from Agricola to Stilicho ' : Hodgkin, Political History of England (No. 632a), 52. § 29. GREEK AND ROMAN WRITERS, ETC. The principal passages relating to Roman Britain are found in /Caesar's Commentaries ; Strabo's Geography ; Pliny's Natural History ; <^Tacitus's Agricola (best edition by Henry Furneaux, Oxford, 1898), Histories, and Annals XSuetonius's Twelve Casars ; Ptolemy's Geography ; Dion Cassius's Roman History ; the Itinerary of Antonine j /Ammianus Marcellinus's History; and the Notitia Dignitatum. These passages, and all the information concerning Britain furnished by other contemporary writers, will be found in Petrie's Monumenta. See also Hardy's Catalogue of Materials, vol. i. pp. cxvi.- cxxxiv., and Cayzer's Britannia : Nos. 45, 1271. Next to Caesar and Tacitus, the Itinerary of Antonine and the Notitia Dignitatum (Nos. 1273-4) are of the greatest value. Peutinger's Tabula and the Anonymus Ravennas (Nos. 1275-6) supplement the Itinerary of Antonine. OK these three geo- graphical works, see Horsley (No. 1302), and H. F.

The oldest existing copy, now at Vienna, was made by a monk of Colmar in 1265, and belonged to Konrad Peutinger of Augsburg in the first half of the i6th century. It traces the lines of the roads throughout the Roman empire, marking the military stations and indicat- ing the distances between them. The part relating to Britain is incomplete. Miller ascribes the work to a cartographer of Rome called Castorius, who compiled it about a.d. 366 ; but Mannert adduces strong evidence that it was drawn up in the 3rd century, while Desjardins believes that some por- tions belong to the age of Augustus and others to the 4th, 5th, and 6th centuries.

The most valuable of the older collections of Roman remains is Horsley's Britannia Romana (No. 1302). Much material will also be found in the treatises and journals mentioned in § 11, and in the works on local history (§ 24), especially Haver- field's sections on Roman Remains in the Victoria county histories (No. 839). The inscriptions throw some light on the provincial administration and miUtary history of Britain, but they are so brief and obscure that they do not add much to our historical information. ' A victorious legion, the death of a commander, the performance of a vow, a tribute to the memory of a departed relative, are the subjects generally commemorated.' The best collection of inscriptions is Hiibner's (No. 1284) ; there are smaller collections in Petrie's Monumenta and McCaul's work (Nos. 537, 1287).

Digitized by Microsoft® 226 Chapter III THE EARLY GERMANS To understand early English history it is necessary to study German institutions as they existed before the Saxons and the Angles invaded England. Whatever concessions may be made to the advocates of the theory of Celtic and Roman survivals in England (see the preliminary notes to §§ 28, 31), a substantial Germanic element will remain at the base of the EngUsh con- stitution. The school of ' Germanists,' or writers who believe in the Teutonic origin of English institutions, includes Stubbs, Freeman, Green, Gneist, Maitland, Pollock, Vinogradoff, and many others. § 32. SOURCES : THE GERMANIA OF TACITUS, ETC. , The central point of the study of the early Germans is the ^Germania of Tacitus, which is supplemented by his Annals and Histories, by Caesar's Commentaries, and by some passages in other classical authors, notably Strabo, Pliny the Elder, Ptolemy, Dion Cassius, and ^ Asser's Life of king Alfred, together with the Annals of Saint Neots erroneously ascribed to Asser, ed.

Asser, a monk of St. Davids, went to the court of Alfred about 884 to assist the king in his studies, and a few years later he was made bishop of Sherborne. His life of Alfred, compiled about 894, consists of two parts : (i) a narrative of events, a.d. 849-887, drawn mainly from the Anglo- Saxon Chronicle ; (2) an account of Alfred's career to 893, based on the author's personal observations. By some writers the work used to be regarded as spurious ; but Stevenson shows that it may be considered trustworthy and valuable, though it doubtless contains many later inter- polations.

Bede, one of the most eminent historians of medieval Europe, was probably bom at or near Wearmouth, and spent most of Ms life in the monastery of Jarrow on the banks of the Tyne. The most important of his works is the Historia Ecclesiastica, extending from B.C. 55 to a.d. 731, the date of its compilation. The brief account of British history to 596, in bk. i., is derived mainly from Orosius and Gildas. From 597 to 731 the narrative is based upon written documents and verbal communications. For the secular as well as the ecclesiastical events of those years it is our only authentic source, the one from which all later writers obtain their information. The oldest and best MSS. are the Moore MS. (called M), in the Cambridge University library, and two in the British Museum, namely, Cotton, Tiber. A. xiv. ( = B) and Cotton, Tiber. C. ii. (=C). Smith's excellent text was based upon these three eighth-century MSS., especially upon M, and was adopted with few corrections by subsequent editors ; hence little was done for the textual criticism of Bede from 1722 to 1896. Plummer's text is now the best : he has carefully collated the oldest MSS., attaching considerable value to C as well as to M. This is the first critical edition since Smith's, and the only one which exhibits the various readings of the older MSS. Vol. ii. consists mainly of valuable notes. For Bede's complete works, see Kos. 1448-51. The best accounts of his life and writings will be found in Plummer's edition of the Historia Ecclesiastica and in Werner's Beda.

Cuthbert {d. 687). Bede's prose Vita S. Cuthberti (No. 1457) is one of the best pieces of medieval biography which we possess. It is based in part on an older anonymous life of Cuthbert (No. 1456). The Historia Translationum S. Cuthberti (No. 1455) deals with the translations of his body and with the history of the church of Durham. The following two works are valuable for the ecclesiastical history of Durham, but contain little information concerning Cuthbert's life : — 1. Historia de S. Cuthberto, ed. J. H. Hinde, S57meonis Dunelmensis Opera (Surtees Soc, 1868), i. 138-52 ; ed. Thomas Arnold, Symeonis Monachi Opera (Rolls Series, 1882), i. 196-214.

James Raine, Historians of the Church of York, i. 399-475. Rolls Series. London, 1879. Written by a monk of Ramsey between 995 and 1005. By far the best account of Oswald's life ; of great value for the reigns of Edgar and Ethelred ; contains notices of public affairs, and throws light on the mo- nastic reformation. This work also gives the best account of Odo, arch- bishop of Canterbury (d. 958). Raine, in his Historians of the Church of York, vol. ii., also prints lives of Oswald by Eadmer, Prior Senatus of Worcester, and Capgrave. The last two are of little value, and Eadmer derives much of his material from the monk of Ramsey. Patrick [d. 461). Some authorities believe that Patrick died about 493. The materials for his life are : — 1. The writings attributed to him, namely, the Confessio, the Epistola ad Coroticum, and the Lorica. The Confessio is in large part autobiographical. The Epistola is a remonstrance addressed to the Christian subjects of Coroticus, a Welsh or a Scotch prince, who seems to have invaded Ireland and slain many Christians ; it gives some particulars regarding Patrick's life. His Lorica, or religious armour, is a hymn written in Irish. Some information regarding him is also found in a Latin hymn composed in his praise by his coadjutor, St. Sechnall. All these pieces, together with certain canons attributed to Patrick, were edited in 1878 by Haddan and Stubbs, Councils (No. 1424), vol. ii. pt. ii., and more recently by Stokes, Tripartite Life (No. 1470). The best edition of the Confessio and the Epistola is by White (No. 1468). 2. The two earliest biographies of Patrick, namely. Bishop Tirechan's notes, which purport to have been obtained from Digitized by Microsoft® § 38] Ecclesiastical Sources 287 Bishop Ultan {d. 657) and were put together in the. second half of the seventh century, and the memoirs compiled by Muirchu Maccu-Machtheni toward the end of the seventh century. Both works are in Latin. They are found, with the oldest copy of the Confessio, in the Book of Armagh, a volume written about 807, which contains the most important sources for the life of St. Patrick. This book was edited by John Gwynn of Dublin in 1913; some of the documents in it are printed by Hogan and by Stokes (Nos. 1466, 1470). See J. B. Bury, Tirechan's Memoir of St. Patrick, in English Historical Review, 1902, xvii. 235-67, 700-704 ; also his Sources of the Early Patrician Documents, ibid., 1904, xix. 493-503, which shows that the works of Tirechan and Muirchu drew on older Patrician literature in Irish ; and his Life of St. Patrick (No. 1651a), app. A. 3. Seven later lives, in Colgan's Acta Sanctorum (No. 605), vol. ii. The first life is an Irish h5nnn, which mentions the princi- pal events in Patrick's career ; it is attributed to Fiacc, bishop of Sletty, a disciple of Patrick, but it was probably composed in the eighth century. It is also printed in Haddan and Stubbs's Councils, vol. ii., and in Stokes's Tripartite Life. The second, third, and fourth of Colgan's lives are anonymous, and belong to the ninth, tenth, or eleventh century. The third, which was probably compiled in the second half of the ninth century, is edited by J. B. Bury in the Transactions of the Royal Irish Academy, 1903, xxxii. 199-262. The fifth is by Probus, tenth century ; the sixth, by JoceUn of Furness, was compiled between 1183 and 1185 (translated into English by E. L. Swift, Dublin, 1809). AH these lives of Patrick, except the first, are in Latin. The last and most important biography in Colgan's collection is a Latin translation of the Irish Tripartite Life, probably of the ninth century. Stokes's edition of the Tripartite Life (No. 1470) is a valuable repertory of materials regarding the apostle of Ireland.

Poetry, Nos. 1472-9. 6. Glossaries, Inscriptions, etc., Nos. 1480-89. A detailed account of early poetry does not fall within the scope of a bibliography of English history, but the poetical literature cannot be entirely ignored. The information regard- ing institutions and social life gleaned from poems like those of Cjmewulf is meagre : see No. 1476. The scene of popular epics like Beowulf, the Battle of Finnsburg, and Wald- here Ues in foreign lands, and their material is in large part legendary ; therefore they add little to our stock of knowledge regarding Britain, although they help to illustrate some of the social and governmental principles of our Germanic ancestors. Of much greater value are the purely historical poems of the tenth and eleventh centuries, namely, the Battle of Maldon (No. 1473) and the national songs embodied in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. Of the latter the Battle of Brunanburh, a.d. 937, is the most important. Other poetical pieces in the Chronicle relate to the conquest of Mercia, a.d. 942 ; Edgar's reign, corona- tion, and death, 959, 973, 975 ; the death of Edward the Martyr, 979 ; Alfred the Etheling, 1036 ; the son of Edmund Ironside, 1057 • 3-'i 1539.

Young's essay on family law (No. 1491) contains the best general account of the msegth, and is supplemented by the works of Von Amira and Roeder (Nos. 1541, 1553). Pollock and Maitland (No. 657)"f'bk. ii. ch. vi. § i, contend that there was no system of mutuEilly exclusive clans, and no permanent organisa- tion of the blood-feud group. Owing to the meagreness of the sources, much obscurity still overhangs such questions as the limits of a msegth and the rules of inheritance. Most writers believe that in the inheritance of lands preference was shown to the sons ; but Opet (No. 1552) contends that the daughters in- herited lands on equal terms with the sons.

Like Kemble, he lays stress upon the communalism of the early village. Maine (No. I559)nries to confirm the views of Kemble and Nasse by the study of modern analogies in India. Seebohm (No. i56i)'^ontends that all these writers are wrong in assuming the existence of the ' mark ' system in England ; he holds that the English village community was derived from the Roman villa, and was manorial , or servile throughout the Anglo-Saxon period. Earle (No. 1416)/ believes that the nucleus of the manor was the settlement of Anglo-Saxon warriors under military chiefs, who soon became manorial lords ; and Andrews (No. i556)«^mphasises the clan chieftain as the most potent element in the origin of majors. Meitzen, Maitland, and Vinogradoff (Nos. 1217, I493,'^3054)' present some strong arguments against Seebohm's theory. Maitland's work is particularly valuable ; he believes that the early English village had little communalism, but was inhabited by freemen who owned land in severalty.

The mpst detailed account of legal procedure is Laughlin's (No. I49i).>^ The question whether groups of sureties, i.e. the frankpledge system, existed before 1066 has evoked much discussion. Mar- quardsen and Waitz (Nos. 1577, 1582) believe that it was intro- duced soon after the Norman Conquest, and this is the view of Digitized by Microsoft® 313 Anglo-Saxon Period : Modern Writers [part m Gneist and Stubbs (Nos. 63gf643)'f Liebermann and Sphmid (Nos. 1405, 1581), like Kemble and PaJgrave (Nos. 1492/1497), assert that the frankpledge system already existed in the tenth century.

The Kesselfang shows that ' ceace ' (kettle) should be read for ' ceape ' in Ine's laws, cc. 37, 62 ; hence that the ordeal was weU known in Ine's time, and was not introduced into England in the gth or loth century, as most writers assert. 1577.

He believes tliat each group of four vills formed a judicial district, which had a ' mark-court," or leet, and that the jury was derived from these ' leet-districts.' He gives much information regarding the vills down to the close of the 13th century, but his main conclusions are untenable.

The public records are very valuable for the study of legal and constitutional history. They are examined in §§ 50-55, where they are placed under the headings to which they primarily relate ; but the contents of each record or series of records are usually of a miscellaneous character, throwing light on various kinds of institutions. For example, Domesday Book and the pipe rolls illustrate many subjects besides finance, and the plea rolls illustrate many besides the judiciary. The language of most of the records in this period is Latin, which was not entirely dislodged by English until 1731 (statute 4 George II. c. 26). In the statutes and rolls of parliament French begins to be prominent in the second half of the thirteenth century, and during the next two centuries predominates over Latin ; but English begins to be freely used in these two series of records during the fifteenth century. See Pollock and Mait- land, English Law (No. 657), and edition, i. 80-87 > Giry, Manuel de Diplomatique (No. 233), 472-3 ; Luders, Use of the French Language in our Laws (No. 206).

Alphabetical Table, Nos. 1673-1869. The most tangible effect of the Norman Conquest upon the chroniclers of England was to widen their horizon, to make their treatment of history less insular and more cosmopolitan ; this was an inevitable result of the closer contact of England with the continent. The superior elegance of the Normans and their faculty of organisation, ' their orderly, systematic tendencies,' also soon left their impress upon the historiography of England. For these and other results of the Norman Conquest, see Hardy, Catalogue of Materials, vol. ii. preface ; and Freeman, Norman Conquest, vol. v. ch. xxv. § 3. Some advance in the art of writing history is visible in Eadmer (d. circa 11 24), but his work is circumscribed in scope. William of Malmesbury {d. circa 1142) was the first writer after Bede who attempted a systematic general history of England, as distin- guished from an arid compilation of facts presented in chrono- logical sequence. As a true historian who looks beneath the surface of events, he is far superior to Florence of Worcester, Simeon of Durham, Henry of Huntingdon, and other chroniclers of the period 1066-1154. There is a remarkable dearth of con- temporary histories for the later years of Stephen and for the early part of the reign of Henry II. A marked feature of the historiography of England in the last quarter of the twelfth century is the prominence of certain non-monastic writers, notably ' Benedict of Peterborough,' Hoveden, Diceto, and Giraldus Cambrensis. The first three of these, who seem to have been in close touch with the courts of Henry II. and Richard I., embellished their narratives with many valuable state papers. Stubbs, in the preface to his edition of Hoveden, vol. i., gives us an account of the northern or Northumbrian school of history, which began with Bede, included his northern continuators (the lost Northumbrian annals, Simeon of Durham, and John and Richard of Hexham), and culminated in Hoveden, whose work is grafted on the Historia post Bedam. In Hoveden's time the cloisters of northern England produced William of Newburgh, a genuine historian of the type of Bede and Malmesbury, who looked upon history as something more than a record of dry facts. Newburgh displays a spirit of critical research far in advance of his age. Digitized by Microsoft® § 48] Chronicles and Royal Biographies 327 In the thirteenth century the historical literature of England is almost wholly confined to the monasteries. Secular clerics, like Geoffrey of Monmouth, Henry of Huntingdon, Giraldus Cambrensis, Hoveden, and Diceto, are no longer prominent among the chroniclers. In the fourteenth century, however, the monastic chroniclers decrease in value, and some of the best histories are written by secular clerks, like Robert of Ayesbury, Geoffrey le Baker, Adam of Murimuth, Adam of Usk, and the author of the Annales Paulini (Nos. 1697, 1716, 1717, 1822, 1853). The annals composed in the medieval cloisters are of three kinds : those dealing mainly or wholly with the history of the writer's monastery, which are examined in § 57 ; those dealing partly with local monastic history and partly with general history ; and those dealing mainly with general history. The annals of the second kind are of great importance in the thirteenth century ; some of the best of them have been printed in Luard's Annales Monastici (No. 1664), and some of the shorter ones in Liebermann's Geschichtsquellen (No. 586). To the third group belong the writers of the St. Albans school of history, a school which pro- duced Wendover, Wallingford, and Paris in the thirteenth century, Rishanger, Trokelowe, Blaneford, the Chronicon Anglise, the Annales Ricardi II. et Henrici IV., Walsingham, Amtindesham', and the Register of Whethamstede in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. This series of annals, written in large part by official chroniclers of the abbey, furnishes us with the fullest account of the general history of England from about 1200 to 1422, and also gives some information concerning the period 1423-61. Matthew Paris is the greatest writer of the St. Albans school and the most eminent chronicler of the thirteenth century. The pre-eminence of St. Albans in the historiography of England, which is much greater than that of St. Denis in the historiography of France, was due partly to its proximity to London and to its position on one of the great highways of England. On the St. Albans school, see James Gairdner, Early Chroniclers of England, ch. vi. ; T. D. Hardy, Catalogue of Materials, vol. iii. preface ; and Augustus Jessopp, Studies by a Recluse, ch, i. Many other abbeys, such as those of Bury St. Edmunds, Canterbury, Durham, Malmes- bury, Peterborough, Westminster, Winchester, and Worcester, were also more or less active in the production of chronicles during the twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth centuries ■ and, like St. Albans, most of them were old Benedictine houses. The Cluniacs, Cistercians, Carthusians, and other reformed orders Digitized by Microsoft® 328 A.D. 1066-1485 : Original Sources [pari it did not accomplish much in England : the most eminent of the Cistercian writers was Ralph of Coggeshall ; among the friars the only prominent chroniclers were Capgrave, Trevet, and Eccleston (Nos. 1731, 1849, 2201). The best historians of the fourteenth century, those of the St. Albans school, like Rishanger and Trokelowe, or such writers as Hemingburgh, Murimuth, and Knighton, are distinctly inferior to the best historians of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. On the other hand, the number of chronicles multiplied so fast that many of the smaller ones still remain unpublished. Among those which have recently appeared are the town chronicles edited by Kingsford and Flenley (Nos. 1665a, 16710;), and the chronicles of John of Reading and an anonymous writer of Canterbury, of the reign of Edward III., edited by James Tait (No. 1832a). In the fifteenth century there was a still further decline in historical literature. Walsingham [d. circa 1422) is the most eminent chronicler of this period, and with the completion of his work the regular series of St. Albans chronicles closes. There was also a dearth of literary activity in other monasteries. The only valuable monastic chronicle in the second half of the fifteenth century is the Crowland continuation of ' Ingulf ' (No. 1798). Laymen in the cities, men like William of Worcester, Hard3m.g, and Fabyan, were displacing the monks ; and in the last quarter of the century the scriptorium was beginning to make way for the printing-press : the first chronicle was printed by Caxton in 1480 (No. 1733). Among these city histories there is an interest- ing group of mayors' chronicles, the extant medieval examples of which, with the exception of Ricart's Bristol Calendar (No. 2375) and the meagre chronicle of Lynn (No. 1671a), relate only to London. The oldest are Fitz-Thedmar's Chronica Majorum, compiled in 1274 ; the Annales Londonienses, compiled in the first half of the fourteenth century ; the French Croniques de London, compiled not far from the middle of the fourteenth century ; and the English Chronicle of London, compiled about 1442 : Nos. 1690, 1739, 1763, 1773. These chronicles contain the names of the chief civic officers, together with notices of the municipal and national events which occurred during each mayoralty. Owing to the important part that London played in the history of the kingdom, the civic annalists were not inclined to ignore national affairs. On this subject, see the excellent introduction to Flenley's Six Town Chronicles (No. 1671a) ; and Gross's Bibliography of Municipal History, pp. xviii.-xxiii.

These annals, to 1258, have much in common with those of Thomas Wykes ; from' that year onward the former favour the barons, while Wykes is a strong royalist. Luard believes that Wykes used the early portion of the Osney annals, that this portion was compiled at Osney about 1233 mainly from Diceto and Florence of Worcester, and that thereafter the events were entered from year to year, as they occurred, until 1277. The bulk of the chronicle is an original authority for the general history of England from 1233 to 1293. The part 1293-1347 is taken from Higden and his continuator. 1694.

After X157 the annals are- original, and from 1219 to 1266 they were written contemporaneously with the events described. Probably the entries for the years 1266-75 were taken from the Annals of Winchester (No. 1696). The Waverley chronicle forms one of the chief authorities for the reign of Henry III., especially for the events preceding and following the battle of Evesham. Much attention is also devoted to John's reign and to the history of the abbey. 1696. Annales monasterii de Wintonia, a.d. 519-1277, ed. H. R. Luard, Annales Monastici, ii. 1-125. Rolls Series.

Down to 1303 these annals were written by a monk of Worcester early in the 14th century, and the work originally ended with the year 1308. The continuation to 1377 comprises only a few meagre entries. The Annals of Worcester contain notices of public events, and are also rich in material illustrating the history of the priory and diocese of Worcester.

One of the chief authorities for Welsh history. Down to 11 20 it may be a Welsh translation of the lost Latin chronicle compiled by Caradoc of Llancarvan, who died about the middle of the 12th century. The earlier portion, to 954, was probably based on the Annales Cambrise {No. 1351). The various MSS. end at different periods. From about a.d. iioo onward the work seems to be contemporary with the events narrated. It was perhaps compiled in the abbey of Strata Florida. The Gwentian Brut is a quite different document from the Bruts in the Rolls Series and the Red Book. It is fuller, of later date, and entirely unauthentic.

The portion relating to Henry VI. is a contemporary record, but it consists mainly of ' pious ejaculations ' in praise of the king. The chapters relating to the other Henries of England are derived from well-known chroniclers (Henry of Huntingdon, Higden, etc.). Capgrave was an Augustinian friar of Lynn. 1732. Case, Thomas.

There was no John, abbot of Peterborough, in the 14th century. The author used Hugh Candidus, Swafiham, Huntingdon, ' Ingulf,' and other pre-existing chroniclers.

The unknown compiler and Tigernach (No. 1377) seem to have transcribed many passages from a common original. See Eugene O' Curry, Lectures on MS. Materials (No. 50), 120-30 ; and MacCarthy (No. 1367). 1753. Chronique de la traison et mort de Richard II., roi d'Engleterre [1397-1400, with a translation of the French text], ed.

The second one, which appears to consist of notes taken from day to day by various monks of the abbey, is in this edition valuable for EngUsh history chiefly by reason of the 300 documents, containing many acts of Henry VI. and his ministers, 1418-63, which Luce prints as an appendix that comprises the greater part of the work: Both chronicles are in French. 1754.

Historia Anglicana, a.d. 449-1298, necnon ejusdem Liber de archiepiscopis et episcopis Anglise, ed. H. R. Luard. Rolls Series. London, 1859. The Historia was begun in 1292. Bk. i. (De Regibus Britonum) is copied from Geoffrey of Monmouth, and is not printed by Luard. The part A.D. 449-1066 is mainly an abridgment of Henry of Huntingdon, and the entries from 1066 to 1291 are transcribed from the Annals of Norwich. From 1291 to 1298 the work is original and contemporaneous. Extracts from this part are edited by Liebermann in Pertz's Scriptores (No. 594), xxviii. 604-21. The above-mentioned Annals of Norwich, to 1263, are based mainly upon Matthew Paris, John of Wallingford, and Tayster ; from 1264 onward this chronicle, with Cotton's continuation, is a contem- porary authority of much importance, especially for the reign of Edward I. Extracts from it, 1074-1292, are edited by Liebermann, ibid., 600-603. A notable feature of this part of the work is the large number of papal bulls, royal letters, and other documents which it contains. The Liber de Archiepiscopis et Episcopis is mainly an abridgment of William of Malmes- bury's De Gestis Pontificum. The portion relating to the bishops of Norwich is also printed in Wharton's Anglia Sacra, i. 403-12. Cotton was a monk of the cathedral church of Norwich. 1 76 1. *CovENTRY, Walter of. Memoriale fratris Walteri de Coventria : the historical collections of Walter of Coventry [from Brutus to 1225], ed. William Stubbs. Rolls Series. 2 vols. London, 1872-73. — A portion of the work is printed in Bouquet's Recueil des Historiens, xviii. 164-87, Paris, 1822 ; and extracts of the part 1202-25 are edited by Liebermann in Pertz's Scriptores (No. 594), xxvii. 183-90, Hanover, 1885. Stubbs says that ' the book is one on which its creator has bestowed very, very little more than manual labour.' It was compiled between 1293 and 1307. The part down to the year 1201 is taken chiefly from Geoffrey of Monmouth, Florence of Worcester, Henry of Huntingdon, Benedict of Peterborough, and Hoveden. The entries from 1201 to 1225, which form a continuation of Hoveden and are derived from a chronicle of the monastery of Barnwell, are of great value for the study of John's reign ; Stubbs regards them as the best source of information concerning .the eventful years 121 2-16. The Barnwell annals seem to have been drawn up about the year 1227 (perhaps at Crowland) ; after the middle of the 13th century they were incorporated in a compilation of historians made Digitized by Microsoft® 358 A.D. 1066-1485 : Original Sources [pam iv at Crowland or Peterborough, and from that compilation were transferred into the Memoriale. Luard, in his edition of Matthew Paris's Chronica Majora, vol. ii. p. xii., plausibly asserts that Walter of Coventry was prob- ably not the author of this work, the title ' Memoriale ' meaning simply that he left the book as a memorial to his monastery ; but Stubbs believes that ' memoriale ' means things worth remembering, or historical collections. Concerning Walter of Coventry almost nothing is known. Perhaps he was a monk of St. Mary's abbey, York, in the reign of Edward I. 1762. *Creton, Jean.

Buchon's edition is based on a better MS. than Webb's. Creton was an eye-witness of many of the events which he narrates, and his poem (seem- ingly written in 1401) is the chief authority for the last few months of Richard's reign. Like the author of the Chronique de la Traison (No. 1753), Creton sympathises with Richard II., to whom he was warmly attached and whom he accompanied on the expedition to Ireland in 1399. He was a squire in attendance on a French knight who had obtained leave from Charles VI. to visit England. In 1410 he was valet-de-chambre of that king. See J. H.

These ' Outlines of History,' down to about 1172, are based on Robert of Torigni ; after 11 72 the work is original, and from 1188 onward it is a valuable contemporary record, which contains many letters, papal buUr, and other documents.

Written be- tween 1 104 and 1 108. Deals mainly with the history of the church of Durham, but also supplies valuable information concerning the secular afiairs of northern England, especially in the 9th century. The early portion of the work is derived chiefly from Bede's Ecclesiastical History and his Life of Cuthbert.

Pauli, in Pertz's Scriptores (No. 594), xiii. 157-60. This chronicle is in part derived from a Durham compilation which extended from a.d. 731 to 951 and was based on the lost Northum- brian annals (No. 1376) and on Asser. The passages taken from the lost annals are valuable for northern affairs. Simeon also used Florence of Worcester, especially from a.d. 887 onward. For the years 1119-29 the work is an independent authority. It was continued by John of Hexham (No. 1791) to 1154. Arnold and Hinde edit various other pieces attributed to Simeon. He was a monk and precentor of the church of Durham. He probably died soon after 1129. 1768. *Eadmer (d. circa 1124). Historia novorum in Anglia [circa a.d. 960-1122], ed. Martin Rule. Rolls Series.

The early portion relates mainly to Lanfranc's career; the bulk of the history comprises a minute contemporary account of the relations of Anselm to William II. and Henry I., 1092-1109. It is the best authority on the investiture controversy. The last two books deal with the history of the see of Canterbury, 1110-1122. Liebermann believes that as regards unity of plan and of treatment this work has no equal among the great historians of England in the 12th century. Eadmer was a monk of Christ church, Canterbury, and the confidential adviser of Anselm. See Felix Liebermann, Ueber Eadmer, in Geschichtsquellen (No. 586), 284-302 ; Father Ragey, Eadmer, Paris, etc., [1892] ; and Martin Rule, On Eadmer's Elaboration of the First Four Books of the Historia Novorum, Cambridge Antiq.

Rolls Series. 3 vols. London, 1858-63. A general survey of English history, probably written by a monk of Malmesbury named Thomas, who completed the work about 1367. The early part is a compilation from Geoffrey of Monmouth, Higden, and other chroniclers. The part 1356-66 is contemporaneous. The continuation to 1413, added by an unknown hand in the first half of the 15th century, is also valuable, especially for the proceedings of parliament in Richard II.'s time. 1 77 1. Fabyan, Robert [d. 1513). The new chronicles of England and France [from Brutus to 1485], by Robert Fabyan, named by himself the Concordance of histories, reprinted from Pynson's edition of 1516, the first part collated with the editions of 1533, 1542, and 1559, ed. Henry Ellis. London, 1811. In his attempt to harmonise the accounts of various chroniclers Fabyan shows little critical power. From 1189 onward the Concordance, which is written in English, has the form of a regular London chronicle, the record of each year being headed by the names of the mayor and sheriffs for that year. The rest of the work is of some value for the history of London and for the affairs of the kingdom, especially during the reigns of Edward IV. and Richard III.

Riley : Chronicles of the mayors and sheriffs of London. London, 1863. One of the most valuable of the regular London city chronicles. It deals with the history of the city and the kingdom, and seems to have been written in 1274. Probably it was called Liber de Antiquis Legibus because the MS. volume in which the chronicle is found contains various ancient enactments, notably the oldest code of ordinances for the government of the city — the building assize of Henry Fitz-Eylwin, a.d. 1189. The portion 1236-74, which is devoted mainly to the affairs of London, is fuller and more valuable than the part 1188-1235. The appendix (pp. 197-205) contains a chronicle of the years 1135-1223, in which Louis VIII. 's expedi- tion to England in 1216-17 is minutely described. Fitz-Thedmar was an alderman of London, and loyally supported Henry III. against the barons. y 1774. *Flores historiarum [from the creation to 1326], ed. H. R. Luard. Rolls Series. 3 vols.

London, 1853- This chronicle was for a long time attributed to Matthew of Westminster, but we now know that he is ' an entirely imaginary person," and that the work ascribed to him was written by various persons at various times. The earlier portion was taken mainly from the greater chronicle of Matthew Paris, and the oldest manuscript belonged at one time to Westminster abbey ; therefore the two names were combined, and the fictitious Matthew of Westminster was spoken of as the author. The oldest manuscript, extending to 1265 and derived mainly from Matthew Paris, was written at St. Albans ; it was then continued at Westminster by various hands to the close of 1306, with which j'ear most of the manuscripts end. The continuation to 1325 was compiled by Robert of Reading, a monk of West- minster {d. 1325) ; and entries for the years 1325-26 were added by another Digitized by Microsoft® § 48] Chronicles and Royal Biographies 363 monk of Westminster.. The part 1259-1326 is largely a contemporaneous record. The St. Albans writer, in his account of the events of the years 1259-65, favours the barons ; but after its removal to Westminster the chronicle becomes royalist in tone. The most valuable notices of the reign of Edward I. are those that relate to the Scottish war. Robert of Reading displays strong feeling against Edward II.

Fordun was probably a chantry priest in the cathedral at Aberdeen. Walter Bower, abbot of Inchcolm {d. 1449)1 really wrote the part 1153-1437, but he made use of Fordun's notes to 1383. The Scotichronicon is valuable for the study of the relations of Scotland to England. 1776. Fragment (A remarkable) of an old English chronicle, or history, of the affairs of Edward IV.

One of the most celebrated chronicles of France and one of the principal sources for the study of the Hundred Years' war. It also deals with the internal afiairs of England. The part 1307-24 is very brief, and down to 1361 many passages are borrowed from Jean le Bel (No. 1811), Froissart travelled much. He was in England from 1361-66 as secretary to Queen Philippa, in 1367-68 he spent another year there, and in 1394 he made a third visit. In the later redactions of his chronicle his tone is hostile to England. The work is valuable, but contains many errors. It was con- tinued by Monstrelet (No. 1818). For the period not covered by Luce and Raynaud. Lettenhove's edition may be used. His indexes (vols, xx.-xxv.) are useful, and so are some of the documents that he prints : e.g. X. 517-33; xviii. 67-73, 84-86, 202-72; xx. 413-31: See also his articles in Bulletins de I'Acad^mie Royale des Sciences, etc., de Belgique, 2nd series, 1865, xx. 659-83, 1869, xxviii. 367-84.

A brief chronicle of the reign of Edward II., written by a canon of the priory of Bridlington. It did not assume its present shape before 1377, although the earlier portion seems to rest on contemporary material. After 1339 the continuation comprises incidental jottings of little value.

This history of Henry II.'s conquest of Ireland was completed about 1188. Hardy calls it the most valuable of Gerald's writings, and believes that as a historical monograph it ' may challenge comparison with any existing work of a similar nature.' Brewer also rates Gerald's two treatises on Ireland high among historical sources. On the other hand, Dimock, while admitting that they ' are in many ways interesting and valuable,' denies that they are ' sober, truthful history.' Gerald's tone is certainly hostile to the Irish, and his works on Ireland must therefore be used with caution. Itinerarium Cambrias : Gerald's Opera, vi, 1-152.

Beyond the fact that he was probably a monk of Gloucester, who wrote about A.D. 1300, nothing is known concerning the author of this English poem.

Hardyng's work, which was completed about 1465, is of little historical value, though it affords some information regarding the reigns of Henry IV., Henry V., Henry VI., and Edward IV. He took part in the battle of Agincourt, and was employed by Henry V. and Henry VI. to secure documents supporting the claim of England to the fealty of the Scotch kings. These documents were forgeries. Hardyng was for many years constable of the castle of Kyme, in Lincolnshire.

Liebermann, in Pertz's Scriptores (No. 594), xxviii. 627-46, Hanover, 1888. The early part is drawn from Henry of Huntingdon, William of New- burgh, and other chroniclers. The account of the reigns of the three Edwards appears to be derived chiefly from personal knowledge and contemporary report. There is a gap in the text comprising the years 1316-26. The author inserts many documents into his narrative, some of which are not found elsewhere. Hardy (Catalogue of Materials, iii. 255) believes that the portion 1297-1346 was written by a continuator. Horst- mann identifies the writer for the years 1326-46 as John of Tynemouth, and Liebermann asserts that Hemingburgh' s work probably ends with the year 1313 ; but Hamilton was inclined to believe that the whole chronicle, to 1346, was written by Walter of Hemingburgh. Walter was a canon regular of the priory of Gisburn, in Yorkshire, and hence is sometimes called Walter of Guisborough. 1789.

The author, who prob- ably wrote in 1416, was an eye-witness of many of the events which he describes ; and he gives a detailed account of the siege of Harfleur and the battle of Agincourt. He is the best authority for the first four years of Henry V.'s reign.

This ■ chronicle of many ages ' was the standard work on general history during the 14th and 15th centuries. It is in large part a compilation : Higden names about forty writers who are his authorities. Bk. i. is geo- graphical : it describes the various countries of the earth. The other six books comprise a universal history. Only a portion of the last book is contemporary, and even that portion does not contain much original information. The real interest of the Polychronicon lies in ' the view it affords of the historical, geographic, and scientific knowledge of the age in which it appeared ' : Gairdner, Early Chroniclers, 279. In many MSS. Higden's work closes in 1342 or 1344. A few MSS. of an earlier edition end in 1327. Trevisa's translation was made in 1387 ; it was printed by Caxton (with the latter's continuation to 1460) in 1482 ; reprinted, 1495 and 1527. Another translation, made between 1432 and 1450, continues the narrative to 1401. The Rolls Series edition, viii. 355-406, ix. 1-283, con- tains a Latin continuation of the Polychronicon to 1394, attributed to John Malverne, a monk of Worcester (d. circa 1415). It is, however, shown in J. A. Robinson's paper on An Unrecognized Westminster Chronicler, 1381-1394 (Proceedings of the British Academy, 1907, iii. 61-77) that Malverne wrote only to 1381, and that the rest of the chronicle was the work of a monk of Westminster. This latter continuation is one of the best authorities for the period that it covers, as Malverne' s is for the reigns of Edward III. and Richard II. Besides the Malverne and Westminster continuations, there are others, of which the most common is that printed in the Rolls Series edition, viii. 407-28. See also Adam of Usk's Chronicon (No. 1853).

Five recensions appeared between 1130 and 1154. The author's main sources of information to about 11 26 are Bede and the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. After that date he derives many of bis statements from oral report, but he does not give us many new facts. It was long believed that his chronicle contained valuable material relating to Anglo-Saxon history based on old folk-songs. Liebermann has shown, however, that this view is untenable, and that some of the details presented in the Historia Anglo- rum which are not found elsewhere are figments of the imagination.

James Tait, in his paper On the Date and Authorship of the ' Speculum Regis Edwardi ' (English Historical Review, 1901, xvi. 110-15), suggests that the real author may have been Simon Meopham, who was archbishop of Canterbury, 1327-33.

Oxford, 1911. 3 ^ The Vita is one of the principal biographies of Henry V. ; written after 1437. The author, who seems to have been a native of Forli, was a member of Henry VI.'s privy council. It is the principal source of The First English Life, which also contains excerpts from an important lost life of Henry V. completed soon after 1455. The Vita et Gesta was, without sufficient reason, attributed by Hearne to Elmham (No. 584) ; but Wylie and Kingsford have shown that it is another version of Livy's Vita. WyUe thinks that it arose from an ex- pansion of the Vita made by Livy himself soon after 1437. Kingsford, however, argues that the expansion was made later, probably in 1446, by an unknown writer, ' perhaps a foreign scholar resident in England.' See J. H.

The Gesta Regum was finished in 1125, but two new recensions appeared circa 1135-40 ; the early part is derived from Nennius, Bede, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, Eadmer, and other writers. The Historia Novella was written in 1140-42. Bk.

Much of the matter is taken from Simeon of Durham, Huntingdon, Fantosme, and other chroniclers, but it is entirely recast so as to form a valuable commentary on the history of the 12th century. The author displays remarkable judgment and good sense in dealing with men and events. ' Many passages,' says Hewlett, ' yield in force and elegance to the work of no writer of that age.' Freeman, in Contemporary Review, 1878, xxxiii. 216, calls him ' the father of historical criticism.' William boldly assailed the fables of Geoffrey of Monmouth, which other medieval chroniclers accepted as historical facts. He was a canon of the Austin priory of St. Mary at Newburgh in Yorkshire. He was also called William Little, or Petit (Parvus). For the continuation to 1298, see No. 1687. There is a good account of Newburgh's History, by Kate Norgate, in Dictionary of National Biography, 1900, Ixi. 360-63 ; she calls it ' the finest historical work left to us by an Englishman of the twelfth century.'

Stevenson, in English Historical Review, 1907, xxii. 72-84). Florence made many additions relating to England, using Bede, Asser, and the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle in a version that is no longer extant. After 1082 he becomes a valuable independent authority. The author of the continuation to 1141, John, a monk of Worcester, was a contemporary of the events which he records.

The Annales contains some useful information concerning the Wars of the Roses. There are no entries for the years 1469-90 ; and the account of the year 1491 looks like an addition by a later hand. Besides his Annales and Collections, William wrote a Latin itinerary, edited by James Nasmith, Itineraria Symonis Simeonis et Willelmi de Worcestre (Cam- bridge, 1778), 77-378.

Wykes also used Florence of Worcester, Diceto, Newburgh, and Matthew Paris ; but from 1256 or 1262 onward he is an original authority. ' For the whole history of the campaigns of Lewes and Evesham, and the events imme- diately preceding and following them,' says Luard, ' his history must always Digitized by Microsoft® § 49] Law- Writers 399 be of the first importance.' This work is a notable exception to the rule that the chroniclers are partisans of Simon de Montfort : Wykes was an ardent royalist. He became a canon of Osney in 1282.

Principal Treatises, Nos. 1870-76. b. Short Tracts, Nos. 1877-83. The Quadripartitus and other law-books of the first half of the twelfth century, examined in § 366, are in large part undigested collections of Anglo-Saxon dooms, with some amendments made by William the Conqueror and his sons. The treatise of which GlanviU is the reputed author (No. i874)''marks considerable progress in the systematic exposition of English law, and embodies the legal reforms introduced by Henry H. In Henry HL's reign Bracton, the greatest law-writer of medieval England, produced the first comprehensive survey of English law : No. 1870.' In the last decade of the thirteenth century Fleta, Britton, and Thornton attempted to present Bracton's material in a more compendious form. Of these abridgments Britton 's is the most valuable. The compendium, or Summa, of Gilbert Thornton, which seems to have been made in 1292, is not now extant ; but a recent paper by G. E. Woodbine, on The Summa of Gilbert de Thornton (Law Quarterly Review, 1909, xxv. 44-52), contends that MS. Hale 135 in the library of Lincoln's Inn is a copy of Thornton's Summa. The author was chief justice of the king's bench. Our knowledge of the work is derived from Selden's dissertation on Fleta : No. 1872. To the reign of Edward I.

The fourteenth century is barren of important law-books : a few anonymous tracts of uncertain date, like the Modus Tenendi Curias, the Old Tenures, and the Novae Narrationes (Nos. 1878, 1881-2), seem to belong to this period. Two great legal writers stand forth prominently in the fifteenth century, namely, Fortescue and Littleton (Nos. 1873, 1876) j but their works are limited in scope. For the Roman law in GlanviU, Bracton, Britton, and Fleta, see T. E. Scrutton, Influence of the Roman Law (No. 660), 74-124; and No. 1870. These four writers, together with Fortescue and Littleton, throw much light on social and constitutional as well as on legal history. Imperfect texts of GlanvUl, Britton, Fleta, and the Mirror of Justices are printed in David Hoiiard's Trcdtes sur les Coutumes Anglo-Normandes, 4 vols., Rouen, 1776. We now have good editions of Britton, the Mirror, and Fortescue's Governance ; but Glanvill, Bracton, Fleta, and Fortescue's De Laudibus need re-editing.

In the plea rolls from about 1245 to 1267 he is often called an itinerant justice, and in 1264 he was appointed dean of the cathedral church of Exeter. His work, which was compiled probably between 1250 and 1258, is the first com- prehensive exposition of English law and by far the most important law- book of medieval England. He borrowed some maxims and rules from the Roman law, chiefly from the Summa of Azo of Bologna. ' His law is English case law systematised by the aid of methods and principles which have been learnt from the civilians. ' There has been considerable dispute as to the extent of the influence of the Roman law upon Bracton, but the substance of his work is doubtless based upon English precedents. A Note Book (No. 2032), comprising about 2000 cases taken from the plea Digitized by Microsoft® § ii] Law- Writers 401 rolls of England, seems to have been made by or for Bracton, and was used by him in the compilation of his treatise. A good edition of his law- book is needed ; Twiss did not understand the pedigree of the manuscripts, and hence failed to distinguish Bracton's original work from later interpolations.

The name Britton is applied to a treatise compiled about 1291, which makes the law appear in the king's name, in the form of royal precepts. It is in large part an abridgment of Bracton, but the writer shows some originality in the arrangement of the material, and turns to account some of Edward I.'s statutes. Perhaps he also made use of Fleta. Nothing is known regarding the authorship of the work. It used to be ascribed to John Breton, bishop of Hereford ; but that theory cannot be true, for he died in 1275. As Bracton's name was sometimes written Britton or Bretton, Selden surmised that the treatise obtained its name from the author out of whose work the material was mainly derived. The best account of Britton will be found in the introduction to Nichols's excellent edition. Digitized by Microsoft® 402 A.D. 1066-1485 : Original Sources [paehv _X 1872.

Having been attainted for treason by Edward IV., he went into exUe with Queen Margaret in 1463, and re- mained abroad until 1471. He was taken prisoner at the battle of Tewkes- bury, was induced to retract all that he had written against Edward IV. 's title, and was pardoned by the king. He wrote several tracts in favour of the Lancastrian house (De Natura Legis Naturae, etc.) . His two principal works, the De Laudibus Legum Angliae and the Governance of England, though concerned more with politics than with law, throw light on trial by jury and other legal institutions of England. In the De Laudibus, which was written between 1468 and 1470, in the form of a dialogue, for the instruction of Edward, son of Henry VI., Fortescue compares the law of England with that of the continent (especially with the civil law of France), and commends the advantages of the former. His chief object is to show the superiority of a constitutional over a despotic government.

A little of all perhaps, but the romancer seems to pre- dominate.' This quotation is taken from Maitland's introduction (to Whittaker's edition), where the best account of the Mirror will be found. See also I. S. Leadam, The Authorship of the Mirror of Justices, in Law Quarterly Review, 1897, xiii. 85-103 ; he believes that the work was tran- scribed under the direction of Andrew Home, but that it was probably compiled by an earlier member of the Home family. •^ 1876.

DOMESDAY BOOK AND SUPPLEMENTARY SURVEYS. Domesday Book was compiled in 1086. The material was collected by royal commissioners, probably in the shire courts, from the verdicts of local juries. This information was reduced to writing, and, having been rearranged and digested, was embodied in two volumes usually designated the Exchequer Domesday. The actual survey seems to have been made hundred by hundred, whereas Domesday Book, excepting Essex, Norfolk, and Suffolk, contains only abstracts of the survey rearranged under the names of tenants-in-chief : all the lands of each tenant -in-chief of the crown are given under his name, no matter in what hundred they may be. The first volume, sometimes called Great Domesday, containing 382 folios, includes thirty counties ; the second, called Little Domesday, a smaller volume of 450 folios, comprises longer reports of Essex, Norfolk, and Suffolk. Round believes that the Little Domesday was ' a first attempt at the codification of the returns,' and that a new plan of arrangement was adopted for Great Domesday. The counties of Northumberland, Cumberland, Westmorland, and Durham are not included in the survey, but parts of Cumberland and Westmorland are comprised in Yorkshire. Lancashire and Rutland were not yet shires, but their area is dealt with under Yorkshire, Cheshire, and Northamp- tonshire. ' Domesday is a geld book, a tax book. GeldabUity, actual or potential, is its main theme.' The survey was intended primarily to ascertain the assessments for the pa5mient of the king's geld and to prevent the evasion of its payment. Inci- dentally it furnishes a vast mass of details regarding the classes of society, land tenures, social life, and legal institutions of England, before and after the Norman Conquest. The Exchequer Domesday is supplemented by other records, which may be divided into three groups : — Digitized by Microsoft® 4o8 A.D. 1066-1485 : Original Sources [pari it 1. The Exon Domesday (a survey of the five south-western shires), the Inquest of Ely, and the Inquest of Cambridgeshire (Nos. 1884, 1893-6, 1909, 1912). These records seem to be fuller copies or digests of the original returns of the royal commissioners from which the Exchequer Domesday was compiled. 2. The geld inquests of Northamptonshire and the five south- western counties (Nos. 1884, 1891, 1895, 1906, 1909). They record two assessments of Danegeld made between 1066 and 1084. 3. Various local surveys of the twelfth century, notably Liber Winton, Boldon Book (Nos. 1898, 1901), and four surveys which seem to be connected with the assessment of Danegeld in Leicester- shire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire, and Worcestershire (Nos. 1903-4, 1907, 1913). Among the older works on Domesday, those deserving particular mention are two brief essays by P. C. Webb, one entitled A Short Account of some Particulars concerning Domesday, 1756, and the other on Danegeld (No. 1590) ; Robert Kelham's Domesday Book Illustrated, 1788 ; Ellis's Introduction (No. 1886) ; J. F. Morgan's England under the Norman Occupation (No. 2821) ; Freeman's Norman Conquest, vol. v. ch. xxii. and appendix. The scholarly works of Eyton (Nos. 1887, 1897, 1909-10) have added much to our knowledge of the subject ; and a still greater advance in the scientific study of the survey has been made in recent years by the researches of Maitland and Round (Nos. 1889, 1891). A brief contemporary account of the survey is printed by W. H. Steven- son in the English Historical Review, 1907, xxii. 72-84 ; and Vinogradoff' s English Society and Stenton's Manorial Structure (Nos. 1240a, 1562) are essentially studies of Domesday.

This copy was made in the latter part of the 12th century, and it deals with the holders of lands in Cambridgeshire. Hamilton prints the texts of the Inquest and Domesday in parallel columns. The Inquest of Ely (Hamilton, pp. 97-195) relates to the lands of Ely abbey in Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, Essex, Norfolk, Suffolk, and Huntingdonshire.

This information enabled the king to provide a new feudal assessment. See Round, Feudal England, 236-46. •/ 1 9 15. *Dialogus de scaccario.

Henderson's Select Historical Documents of the Middle Ages, 20-134. London, etc., 1892. Madox constructed his edition from the texts of the Black Book and Red Book (Nos. 1916-17). The Dialogus, which was completed in 1178 or 1 1 79, was written by Richard Fitz-Neal, treasurer of England, 1 158-98, and bishop of London, 1 1 89-98. It is in the form of a dialogue between a master and his disciple, and consists of two books. The first book describes the organisation of the exchequer, its writs and rolls, and the functions of its officers. The second book treats of proceedings in the exchequer, the collection of debts, the manner in which accounts were rendered by the sheriffs, and the various sources of royal revenue. The treatise also contains much information regarding other institutions. See F.

It contains three treaties of Henry I. and Henry II. with the count of Flanders, four bulls of Pope Alexander III., the ' cartse ' of 1166, the Constitutio Domus Regis (circa 1135), various charters, etc. This book should not be confused with Digitized by Microsoft® § 6o] The Exchequer and Revenue 419 the unprinted Liber Niger which contains' the Dialogus de Scaccario and miscellaneous entries relating to the exchequer from 19 Edward II. to 1 7 15.

The earlier portion of this work was compiled about a.d. 1230 by Alex- ander de Swereford ; many additions were made from time to time, some of them as late as the i6th century. It contains charters, inquisitions, statutes, correspondence, surveys, fiscal accounts, exchequer precedents, papal bulls, etc. Hall prints many of the most important documents and a table of contents of the MS. volume. Among the valuable pieces which he omits axe the Leges Henrici Primi (No. 1406) and the Dialogus de Scac- cario. More than two-thirds of the material in his edition consists of records relating to feudal tenures, mainly of the reigns of Henry II., Richard L, and John : for example, the ' cartae ' of 11 66, lists of persons subject to the payment of scutage, a.d. i 156-1252, lists of knights' fees under the first four Angevin kings, etc. Volume iii. contains the Constitutio Domus Regis {circa 11 35), privileges and exemptions of exchequer officers, three royal ordinances of 1323-26 which aim to reform the exchequer adminis- tration, a fourteenth-century treatise on the mint, etc. These documents throw light on the fiscal machinery of the 13th and 14th centuries, and the editor's elaborate preface gives much information regarding scutage, tenures, the exchequer administration, and other topics. The severe criticism of this edition in J. H. Round's Studies on the Red Book of the Exchequer, London, 1898, pp. 91, is answered in Hall's Red Book of the Exchequer, a Reply to Mr. J. H.

The pipe rolls, also called annual or great rolls of the exchequer, record the yearly accounts of the sheriffs and other debtors of the crown as audited in the upper exchequer, and thus display the amount of the royal revenue derived from various sources, particularly from the king's farm, the king's geld, and from fines imposed by judicial proceedings. It has been conjectured that they were called pipe rolls either from their resemblance to the section of a drain pipe or because all the revenues or sheriffs' accounts flowed through them, as through a conduit, into the treasury. Both explanations are unsatisfactory. Ramsay (English Historical Review, 1911, xxvi. 329-30) suggests that the name is derived from the individual membranes, or pipes, of which the roll was made up. The series begins in 31 Henry I. (1130), but there is a gap from that year to 2 Henry II. ; then there is a roU for each year until 1832, excepting i Henry III. and 7 Henry IV. In all there are 676 rolls, forming one of the most nearly complete and also one of the most valuable series of national records. They are particularly useful for the legal and constitutional history of the twelfth century, because so few other records of that period are extant. There are also in the Public Record Office 612 duplicates or ' antigraphs ' of the pipe rolls, called chancellors' rolls, 9 Henry II. — 3 William IV. They were in charge of the chancellor, and served as a check on the pipe roUs, which were in the custody of the treasurer.

Pells of issue and receipt (' pelles exitus,' ' pelles introitus '); journals of daily receipts and expenditures without distinction of counties, made up by the clerk of the pells in the pells' office, a part of the lower exchequer. The pells' issue rolls contain entries of pa5nnents made out of the crown revenues by the exchequer officials. They extend from 6 Henry III. to 19 Edward IV., and from 9 Elizabeth to 1797 ; in 1797 the form of the record was changed from rolls to books. The pells' receipt rolls record revenues paid into the exchequer, 14 John-22 George III. ; from 1782 onward the entries are in receipt books. Abstracts of both kinds of pells, for various reigns, wiU be found in Ramsay's papers in the Antiquary (No. 2960). The series of auditors' issue and receipt rolls contains matter similar to that which is entered in the pells ; the one series of rolls served as a check on the other. 2. Receipt rolls, which seem to have been in use from the time of Henry II. to that of Henry III, Like the pells, they were made up in the lower exchequer ; but they were term rolls (not journals of daily accounts), with the entries arranged under counties, a feature in which they resemble the pipe rolls. A portion of a single roll (No. 1934) has survived. 3. Liberate rolls, 2 John-14 Henry VI., which contain writs issued by the chancery directing exchequer officers to ' deliver ' or pay out of the treasury sums of money for salaries and other expenses of the crown. 4. Prsestita rolls, John-James I., in which are entered pay- ments made from the treasury to royal officers and others by way of imprest, advance, or accommodation, and charged to the account of the persons receiving them. 5. Misse rolls, only two of which are extant, namely those of II and 14 John (Nos. 1930, 1935). They contain an account of the daily expenses of the king's court, and are closely related to the wardrobe accounts (§ 5oe). Various Irish receipt rolls and treasurers' accounts of Edward I.'s reign are printed in the Calendar of Documents relating to Ireland (No. 2127). 1930.

This was apparently one of a series of receipt rolls made up in the lower exchequer twice a year, at the Easter and Michaelmas sessions ; of this series only fragments are now extant. The roll of 11 85 seems to have recorded all sums received at the lower exchequer, while the pipe rolls recorded ' only such as were paid on account or were connected with a permanent liability.' Single payments made in full, such as fines and amercements, were usually entered in the receipt roll. 1935. Rotuli de Uberate ac de misis et prsestitis regnante Johanne, ed. T. D. Hardy. Record Com.

' The King's Wardrobe . . . was anciently one of the Royal Treasuries into which certain portions of the revenues of the Crown were paid, and from which disbursements were made, as well for military and naval as for civil and domestic expenses.' Promi- nent among these disbursements were the ordinary expenses of the Digitized by Microsoft® § 5o] The Exchequer and Revenue 425 royal family. The treasurer of the king's wardrobe also kept the king's money, jewels, and private receipts, which were entered in a roll, while another roll contained the daily expenses of the royal household. Besides the king's wardrobe, of which the great wardrobe and the privy wardrobe were departments, there were several minor wardrobes. The wardrobe accounts extend from John to 56 George III. The most valuable in print is the Liber Quotidianus of 28 Edward I. (No. I940«). A wardrobe account of 10-13 Edward I. is appended to Henry Ellis's edition of John of Oxenedes (No. 1828), pp. 326-36 ; and fragments of such accounts are found in Stevenson's Documents (No. 2133).

(taxes on moveables), and the poll-tax rolls Digitized by Microsoft® § 6o] The Exchequer and Revenue 427 of 51 Edward III. and 2 and 4 Richard II. The tax on moveables was introduced by Henry II. in 1188, and became prominent in the thirteenth century ; fragmentary rolls, temp. Hen. III., for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Kent, Lancashire, and Wilts are in the Public Record Of&ce, but the earliest in print belong to the time of Edward I. The scutage rolls, 16 John- 20 Edward III. (Nos. 1946, 1957, 2093a), as a rule give the names of persons who were exempted from the payment of scutage because they had performed their military service or had compounded for it by paying a fine. Scutage, and feudal aids (Nos. 1947, 1951, etc.), were levied on knights' fees. The Book of Aids is a MS. volume in the Public Record Office which gives details regarding an aid for the knighting of the Black Prince, 20 Edward III., and regarding another aid for the marriage of the king's eldest daughter, 3 Henry IV., together with a description of the knights' fees on which these aids were imposed : see Nos. 871, 996, 1951, 1955, 1961, 2157, 2169.

The memoranda rolls, 10 Richard I.-1848, comprise two distinct series, those of the king's remembrancer and those of the treasurer's remembrancer. These ' memoratores ' prepared the business which was to come before the barons of the exchequer, and called the attention of the latter to important matters con- cerning the revenue. Their rolls contain valuable memoranda relating to a great variety of matters, many of which are also recorded in other rolls, such as proceedings for the recovery of debts due to the crown, returns of commissions of inquiry, charters and letters patent, sheriffs' accounts, etc. Prior to i Henry III. there are only two memoranda rolls, 10 Richard I.-i John, and 12 John. The duties of the remembrancers are fully set forth in Hubert Hall's edition of the Red Book of the Exchequer (No. 1917), 863-87. For Irish exchequer memoranda of the reign of Edward I.; see Mary Bateson, in English Historical Review, 1903, xviii. 497-513 ; and cf. Round's note on Decies and Desmond, ibid., 709. The treasurer's remembrancer also had charge of the originalia rolls, Henry III.-1837 (No. 1992), in which are entered the estreats transmitted from the chancery to the exchequer in order to in- form the latter regarding the chancery transactions which affected the revenue in any way. These estreats comprise ' all manner of charters, commissions, letters patent, and letters close, whereby farms, rents, and accounts may be rendered at- the exchequer ; and likewise the homages and fealties of all those who shall have performed them to the king the same year and ought to render a Digitized by Microsoft® 436 A.D. 1066-1485 : Original Sources [pabtiv relief to him ; and all manner of fines made during the same time in the chancery ' : Hall's Red Book, 879. The fine rolls, i John-23 Charles I. (No. 1990), 'take their name from the enrolment on them of fines or payments made for writs, grants, licences, pardons and exemptions of various kinds.' They are ' a compilation of three entirely different and unrelated classes ' of chancery enrolments ; (i) payments for writs, brief notes that give little or no information about the nature of the writs themselves ; (2) ' grossi fines,' which are mainly ' notes of enrolments on the patent and charter rolls,' consisting ' almost wholly of fines made for licences and pardons for the alienation and acquisition of land, for commissions of oyer and terminer, and for charters and confirmations of charters ' ; (3, the most important class) ' enrolments of documents issued under the great seal in the form both of letters patent and of letters close, relating to matters in which the crown had some direct or indirect financial interest.' As entries of pa5Tnents made to the king by way of oblation, these rolls were at first called oblate rolls ; but the name fell into disuse after the reign of John.

The ministers' accounts, Henry HL-Charles II., were the original accounts of bailiffs, reeves, farmers, receivers, and other ministers; or officers, appointed to collect the issues of royal manors and lands, in various parts of England, Ireland, and Wales, which were not included in the yearly farms of the sheriffs. These accounts were at first entered in the pipe roUs, but from 42 Edward HL onward in a distinct series of roUs called foreign accounts (i.e. foreign to the business of the sheriffs), which may be regarded as a digest of the detailed ministers' accounts. The latter include many surveys and rentals that give valuable particulars regarding social and manorial life ; also accounts of the English possessions of the knights templars in England, drawn up in the time of Edward IL Digitized by Microsoft® 438 A.D. 1066-1485 : Original Sources [part iv Some customs accounts are edited by Alexander Bugge in Diplomatarium Norvegicum, 1910 (No. 2i30fli).

The Peers' Reports (No. 2944) contain important documents concerning parliamentary history, and the lists of members of parliament (No. 2945) are helpful to the historical investigator. a. WRITS, PETITIONS, AND PROCEEDINGS. The principal classes of records falling under this head are : — 1. Writs for the election of members of the house of commons, with the returns thereto, 3 Edward I. onward ; and writs summoning peers to parliament, enrolled on the dorse of the close rolls until Henry VIIL's reign. The chief collections are those of Dugdale, Palgrave, Prynne, and the Peers' Reports (Nos. 2003-4, 2006, 2944) . For Ireland, see Lynch's treatise (No. 3013) . 2. Original petitions, Edward L-Henry VII., comprising peti- tions to the king, the council, parliament, the chancellor in his executive capacity, and to other officers of state. Many of the petitions to parliament, with the answers thereto, are printed in the Rotuli Parliamentorum (No. 2010) ; see also North Riding Record Soc, Records, new series, 1896, iii. 229-59 ; and Nos. 2002, 2007-11, 2570. 3. The rolls of parliament (Nos. 2002, 2008, 2010-11), in which from 33 Edward I. to i Richard III. are entered the trans- actions of parliament, with various petitions or bills.

The Vetus Codex, or Black Book of the Tower, contains ancient transcripts of parliament rolls, 18-35 Edward I. and 12 Edward II. ; it was printed by Ryley in 1661 (No. 2011). 4. The proceedings, or acts, of the privy council (Nos. 2005, 2009). Much information concerning the business transacted by this body in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries may be gleaned from the patent, close, and coram rege roUs. Formal minutes of its transactions do not seem to have been kept before the reign of Richard II., when the separation of the council from parliament was completed. Many of the records (originals and transcripts), 1386-1461, together with the register of 1545-46, are preserved in the British Museum. The later proceedings, 1540 onward, are in the Privy Council Office. Some pleadings before the king's council in the thirteenth century are included in the Abbreviatio Placitorum (No. 2041) ; and Fortescue's Governance (No. 1873) is valuable for the study of the council in the fifteenth century.

The most valuable collection of material relating to the history of parlia- ment. It was printed in accordance with an order of the house of lords, dated March 9, 1767. In 1777 the six volumes were ' in a very short time ' to be ' ready to be delivered to the lords ' : Lords ' Journals, xxxv. 236. The ofi&cial copy of the work formerly in the old record office in the Tower has a MS. inscription stating that the same was presented in 1783 by the king's command. The text of this edition is inaccurate, having been printed from transcripts which were not collated with the originals. The appendixes contain many petitions and extracts from letters patent and close. For rolls not included in these six volumes, see Nos. 2002, 2008. The elaborate Index to the Rolls of Parliament, 1832, was edited by John Strachey, John Pridden, and Edward Upham, by order of a committee of the lords. 201 1. Ryley, William. Placita parliamentaria [Edw. I.- Edw. II.]. London, 1661. Contains rolls of parliament ; with an appendix comprising extracts from patent and close rolls, Edw. I.-Edw.

Apart from the Leges, or private compilations, of the twelfth century examined in § 366, the principal legislative acts of the period 1066-1485 are : — § 6i] Privy Council, Parliament, and Legislation 443 I. Two small collections of William the Conqueror's laws. One of these comprises three enactments regarding the use of the duel and the ordeal in criminal accusations in which Normans and Englishmen were concerned : Latin and Anglo-Saxon versions are printed in Schmid's Gesetze der Angelsachsen, 352-3, Thorpe's Ancient Laws, i. 488-9, and Liebermann's Gesetze der Angelsachsen, i. 483-4 ; cf. Freeman, Norman Conquest, vol. v. app. KK, and below, No. 2016. The other collection (often called Articuli Willelmi, or, from the opening words, Hie Intima- tur) contains ten Latin enactments regarding the oath of fealty, murder fines, punishments, etc. : 9th edition, in Stubbs's Select Charters, 97-99, in his edition of Hoveden, vol. ii. pp. ci.-cii., 216-18, and in Liebermann's Gesetze, i. 486-8. This seems to be a private compilation put together early in the twelfth century and containing an epitome of ordinances made by the Conqueror at different times. There is also a much longer version, with various interpolations by a later hand, perhaps of Edward L's time : Schmid, Gesetze, 354-7 ; Thorpe, Ancient Laws, i. 490-94 ; Liebermann, Gesetze, i. 489-91 ; cf. Hoveden, ed. Stubbs, vol. ii. pp. xxii.-xliii. We have also the Conqueror's ordinance or writ separating the ecclesiastical from the temporal courts : Schmid, Gesetze, 357 ; Liebermann, Gesetze, i. 485 ; Stubbs, Select Charters, 99-100. 2. The charters of liberties of Henry L, Stephen, and Henry II. : Stubbs, Select Charters, 116-19, 142-4, 158 ■ also printed in B^mont's work and in Statutes of the Realm, 1810, i. 1-4 (Nos. 2013, 2025). On Henry L's charter, of which Liebermann gives the best text (No. 2017), see E. A. Freeman, William Rufus, ii. 352-9 ; and H. L. Cannon, The Character and Antecedents of the Charter of Liberties of Henry I., in American Historical Review, 1909, xv. 37-46. 3. The order of Henry I. concerning the holding of the courts of the hundred and shire (Stubbs, Select Charters, 122, and Lieber- mann, Gesetze, i. 524) ; and the assizes, orders, and constitutions of Henry II. and Richard I. (Stubbs, Select Charters, 161-89, 251-8). For the assize of Clarendon, see also Palgrave, English Commonwealth, ii. 166-71 ; and for the constitutions of Clarendon, see Maitland, Henry II. and the Criminous Clerks (No. 3124). 4. The Great Charter of John, the forest charter, and their various confirmations to 1301 : Stubbs, Select Charters, 284-303, 333-5I1 482-93 } Statutes of the Realm, 1810, i. 6-44 ; and Digitized by Microsoft® 444 A.D. 1066-1485 : Original Sources [part iv the works of B6mont, Blackstone, and Thomson (Nos. 2013-14, 2019). There is an elaborate commentary on the Great Charter in Coke's Second Institute (No. 649) ; another valuable one is McKechnie's work (No. 2017a), which also, at pp. 176-82, points to other commentaries and editions. Bemont gives an account of the literature concerning the charters of liberties. G. B. Adams's essays are expanded in No. 638. See C. H. Mcllwain, Due Process of Law in Magna Carta, Columbia Law Review, 1914, xiv. 27-51. Autotypes of the articles of the barons and Magna Carta may be purchased at the British Museum. On the Confirmatio Cartarum, 1297, see No. 1986. 5. The statute roUs, records of chancery in which the statutes were entered. Only six rolls are extant, extending from 6 Edward L to 8 Edward IV., with a gap from 8 to 23 Henry VI. This series is supplemented by ancient transcripts of statutes, John-Henry VIII., several volumes of which are preserved in the Public Record Of&ce. The legislative acts of Henry III. are found in the patent and close roUs and in the chroniclers. From i Richard III. onward the statutes are entered in the rolls of parliament. The old printed collections of statutes begin with Henry III.'s confirmation of the Great Charter, 1225. The principal commentaries are Coke's Second Institute and Barring- ton's Observations (Nos. 649, 2020). See also John Selden's Opera Omnia, 1726, ii. 969-1030, iii. 6-46, dealing mainly with the older laws to 1215. Reeves, in his English Law (No. 658), gives a useful abstract of the statutes.

""Placita de quo warranto, Edward L-Edward III, [ed. Wilham lUingworth]. Record Com. [London], 1818. These were pleadings held before the itinerant justices and based on writs of quo warranto requiring certain persons, boroughs, abbeys, and other communities to show by what authority they claimed franchises. The plea determined whether the exercise of the franchise was an infringement of royal rights. These pleadings resulted from the inquiries recorded in the hundred rolls (No. 2160) and from the statute of Gloucester, 1278. After 10 Edward HI. the quo warranto proceedings took place in the king's bench or in the exchequer, and are entered on the coram rege and memo- randa rolls. The volume published in 181 8 gives many valuable details regarding feudal, municipal, and other institutions. Some placita de quo warranto of Edward III.'s reign will also be found in the Record of Caer- narvon (No. 2657), 133-207. 2041. *Placitorum abbreviatio, Richard I. -Edward II. Record Com.

This abstract of pleas (held in the curia regis, king's bench, common pleas, eyres, king's council, parliament, etc.) was made by Arthur Agarde and others in the time of Elizabeth and James I. Many interesting cases are omitted, and the transcripts contain numerous errors ; nevertheless the book is of great value. 2042. Public record office.

London, 1531 ; 4th edition, 4 pts., 1687. This official register gives the various forms of writs, many of which had remained unchanged since the 12th and 13th centuries. It is 'a book that grew for three centuries or more.' See F. W. Maitlg,nd, History of the Register of Original Writs, in Harvard Law Review, 1889, iii. 97-115, 167-79, 212-25; reprinted in his Collected Papers (No. 656a), ii. 110-73, and in Select Essays (No. 660a), ii. 549-96. Besides this register we have the anonymous Natura Brevium, or La Vieux Natura Brevium, which seems to have been compiled in Edward III.'s reign ; it contains the principal kinds of writs, with a short commen tary explaining their nature and application. Various editions were pub lished, both in the original French and in English, during the i6th century (circa 1510, 1516, 1528, etc.). A work of a similar character by Anthony Fitzherbert is called La Novelle Natura Brevium (London, 1534, and later editions ; translation, 1652, gth edition, 1794). Many writs are found in Glan villa's treatise and in the law-books of the 13th century. See also the Statuta Walliae, 1284, in Statutes of the Realm, 1810, i. 55-68. 2044. Rotuli curiae regis, ed.

Particular Countries, Nos. 21130-37. Most of the records examined in this section are chancery enrolments : in other words, transcripts of documents which before being issued from the chancery were copied into various series of rolls for future reference and verification. These docu- ments relate to a great variety of transactions at home and abroad, for the chancellor was secretary of state for both home and foreign affairs. Some of the chancery enrolments, notably the liberate, fine, and statute rolls, have already been described, in §§ 50-51- The rolls of the chancery were formed by sewing the separate membranes end to end into one continuous strip, which was then rolled up • whereas the membranes of the plea rolls and of most of the exchequer records were fastened or filed at the top, so as to overlap. The collections or series of documents considered in this section are : — I. Charters, and letters patent and close, the most valuable of the chancery enrolments. They were the instruments by which the kings of England made grants and transacted much public business of inaportance. ' By the first their more solemn acts were declared, by the second their more public directions promulgated, and by the third they intimated their private instructions to Digitized by Microsoft® 464 A.D. 1066-1485: Original Sources [pabtiv individuals.' These three series of records contain grants of lands, offices, privileges, and the like to individuals or com- munities, mandates to royal officers, etc. ; the patent and close roUs also comprise truces, treaties, diplomatic correspondence, and documents concerning the revenue, judicatiure, and other branches of the English government. Royal charters and letters patent, although they often resemble each other as to their con- tents, are distmguished from each other as regards their form. The charters are addressed ' to the archbishops, bishops, abbots, priors, eails, barons,' etc.. and are executed in the presence of various witnesses ; whereas letters patent are addressed ' to all to whom these presents shall come,' and are usually witnessed by the king himself (' teste meipso '). Letters patent were so called because they were delivered open, with the great seal pendent at the bottom j but in this respect they do not differ from charters. Letters close, 6 John to the present time, were mainly royal mandates addressed to one individual or more ; therefore they were closed and sealed on the outside. The patent rolls ex- tend from 3 John to the present time j the charter rolls from i John to 8 Henry VIIL, after which date all grants were made in the form of letters patent and were entered on the patent rolls. The confirmation rolls, i Richard III.-i Charles I. (Nos. 2088, 2094( 2102), contain charters of confirmation, which usually recite in full, or ' inspect,' and confirm older royal grants, some of them as old as the seventh century ; before i Richard IIL the confirmations are enrolled on the charter and patent rolls, and after i Charles I. on the patent rolls. A calendar of the royal charters from 1066 to 1154 is being prepared by H. W. C. Davis (Regesta Regum Anglo-Norman- norum, vol. i., 1066-1100, Oxford, 1913), and a calendar of the Norman charters of the same period by C. H. Haskins. Cf. J. H. Round, in English Historical Review, 1914, xxix. 347-56. 2. ' Cartae antiquse ' (Nos. 2088, 2101), which comprise chancery transcripts of royal and other charters of various dates, from Ethelbert of Kent to Edward I. They are probably copies of charters brought to the chancery in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries for exemplification and enrolment, in order to ensure the preservation of their contents. 3. ' Ancient correspondence,' or ' litterae regum,' Richard I.- Henry VII. (Nos. 2089, 2091, 2105-7, 2113) : mainly royal letters preserved in the Public Record Office in the form, not of enrolments, but of originals. Digitized by Microsoft® § 53] Chancery Enrolments : Royal Letters, etc. 465 4. The so-called treaty rolls, which are divided into various branches, namely Almain, French, Gascon, Norman, Roman, Irish, Scotch, and Welsh rolls : Nos. 2088, 2097, 2101-2, 2115-17, etc. They contain treaties, diplomatic correspondence, charters, letters patent and close, etc., relating to the affairs of foreign countries, — Germany and Flanders (Almain rolls), the English possessions in France (French, Gascon, and Norman rolls), the Roman see, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Documents similar to these are also preserved in the patent and close rolls. 5. Rymer's Foedera (Nos. 2097-9), a collection of records of great importance for the study of political and diplomatic history. It contains numerous extracts from the charter, patent, close, treaty, and other rolls. N. H. Nicolas calls it ' the Bible of antiquaries.' a. GENERAL. Many letters patent and close are transcribed on the originalia and memoranda rolls (§ 5og) ; many are printed in Palgrave's Parliamentary Writs, the Rotuli Parliamentorum, the Peers' Reports (Nos. 2004, 2010, 2944), and in Robert Brady's Complete History of England, London, 1685 (Continuation, 1700). Numerous royal grants will also be found in Madox's Formulare Anglicanum (No. 238), in Dugdale's Monasticon (No. 613), and in the local collections of charters (§ 57) . The palatinates of Durham, Chester, and Lancaster each had its own series of chancery enrol- ments : see § 57. The Great Charter, with its precursors and confirmations, is examined in § 516. By reason of the alphabetical arrangement followed below, the Calendars are separated from the Rolls on which they are based. 2087. Ancient charters, royal and private, prior to 1200 [1095-1200], ed.

An inquisition ad quod damnum was taken by virtue of a writ addressed to the royal escheator of a county when any grant of a market, fair, or privilege was requested, commanding him to ascertain by the verdict of a jury whether such grant, if it should be made, would be to the damage of the king or of other persons.

This view is assailed by J. H. Round in a paper on The Chronology of Henry II.'s Charters, in the Archaeological Journal, 1907, Ixiv. 63-79 ; but it is supported by R. L. Poole in an article on The Dates of Henry II.'s Charters, in the English Historical Review, 1908, xxiii. 79-83.

London, [i8i9-23].-^The Bayeux tapestry reproduced in autotj^e, with historic notes. By F. R. Fowke. Arundel Soc. London, 1875 ; abridged editions, 1898, 1913. 79 plates. [Valuable.] — La tapisserie de Bayeux : 79 planches phototypographiques, avec un texte historique [based on Fowke's work]. By Jules Comte. Paris, 1878. This tapestry is a strip of linen (formerly preserved in the cathedral of Bayeux, in Normandy, and now in the town museum of that city), in which is worked, in coloured wools, a series of events immediately preceding the death of Edward the Confessor and ending with the invasion of England and the battle of Hastings. It is about 20 inches wide and 230 feet long, and is divided into seventy-two compartments or scenes. The best authorities believe that it is a contemporary work made in Normandy by order of Bishop Odo for his newly-built cathedral of Bayeux, and that it is not the handiwork of Matilda, wife of William the Conqueror. Albert Marignan (La Tapisserie de Bayeux, Paris, 1902) holds that the story illustrated is based on the account of the Norman Conquest preserved by Wace in the Roman de Rou, circa 1170, and that the tapestry was designed between then and ii8o : but his view is rejected by Gaston Paris, in Romania, 1902, pp. 404-19 ; by Maurice Lanore, in Bibliothfique de I'Ecole des Chartes, 1903, Ixiv. 83-93, who believes that it was designed 1080-95; and by J. H. Round, in the Monthly Review, 1904, xvii. 109-26. The tapestry is valuable for the study of the events with which it deals. For the literature of the subject, see the bibliography in Fowke's book, 1875, pp. 97-102. Besides the works already mentioned, the principal accounts of the history of the tapestry are :— J. C.

The jury, assembled by the es- cheator of the 'county, declared what lands the tenant had at the time of his death, what their annual value was, by what rents or services they were held, who was the next heir, and how old he then was. If he was of age, he paid a feudal relief to the crown ; if he was a minor, the king would have the wardship of the estate ; if there was no heir the estate would escheat to the crown. Although the regular seriesof these records does not begin till early in Henry IH.'s reign, similar information regarding Digitized by Microsoft® § 55] Feudal Tenures : Inquests post Moetem, etc. 481 reliefs, wardships, and the like is afforded by certain rolls of the year 1185 (No. 2159) . The inquests post mortem are the favourite hunting-grounds of genealogists ; they are also of great value for the study of manorial history, for they often include minute ' extents,' or surve}^, of manors, which give details regarding the tenants on an estate, their services and holdings. Filed with these documents are many inquisitions ad quod damnum (Nos. 2094, 2105) i but from i Edward II. to 39 Henry VI. the latter form a separate series. Lists of abstracts of inquests post mortem preserved in public libraries wUl be found in Richard Sims's Manual for the Genealogist, 1856, pp. 125-8. For the escheators' accounts, which give many details regarding feudal property, see Deputy Keeper's Reports, 1840, i. 139-42. 2. Hundred rolls (No. 2160). They contain inquisitions by a jury of each hundred concerning infringements of the king's rights, encroachments on the royal demesne, and oppressive measures of the sheriffs and other local of&cers of the crown. During the disorders of Herury III.'s reign the magnates and sheriffs had been guilty of many usurpations and exactions. In 1274 and again in 1279 Edward I. appointed commissioners who visited the various counties to secure data regarding the nature of these abuses. The jury for each hundred gave information concerning the owners and occupiers of lands, the extent and tenures of their estates, the services rendered by under-tenants, the feudal profits of the king which had been wrongfully withheld, manorial courts and privileges, exactions of the nobility and royal of&cers, and many other matters. The verdicts or reports of the juries throw much light upon feudal tenures and manorial institutions. In 39 Henry III. and after 8 Edward I. similar inquisitions were held before the itinerant justices, and are entered on the eyre roUs. 3. Testa de Nevill, or Liber Feodorum (No. 2161), a register compiled from inquisitions, many of the originals of which still exist in the Public Record Office. It contains an account of knights' fees, serjeanties, widows and heiresses whose marriages were in the gift of the king with the value of their lands, churches in the gift of the king, escheats, and the amount of scutage and aid paid by each tenant. This record enabled the exchequer officials to determine from whom aids, scutages, and other feudal profits might be demanded by the crown. ' Testa ' seems to refer to the record chest in which the register was preserved ; but it is uncertain whether the title is derived from Ralph de Nevill, 3 1 Digitized by Microsoft® 482 A.D. 1066-1485 : Original Sources [pahi it an exchequer officer of Henry III., or from Jollan de NevJll, an itinerant justice of the same reign, or from John de Nevill, an official of Edward I.'s time. The title Testa de Nevill refers only to certain older Usts or returns which form a small part of the whole register. The latter includes numerous returns for the reigns of Richard I. and John ; the bulk of the material in the printed work belongs to the first half of Henry IH.'s reign. The compilation in its present form is usually ascribed to the time of Edward II., but it may have been made late in the reign of Edward I. 4. Kirkby's Quest. This is a survey of various counties of England, made, probably in 1284-85, under the direction of John de Kirkby, the king's treasurer. It comprises in most cases abridgments of original inquisitions, or extracts from them, and gives information concerning the knights' fees held of the king or of others j some of the complete returns have, however, survived. The survey resulted from certain reforms in the exchequer ordained by the statute de scaccario, 12 Edward I. ' The return of knights' fees, which eventually determined the importance of this survey to later exchequer officials, and to modem students, was apparently a subordinate part of the inquiry, not required by the statute, and possibly designed to facilitate the collection of the scutage of 10 Edward I.' See Nos. 2164, 21666, 2168, 2171, 2186, 2191 s and, for the part relating to Leicestershire, see Nichols, County of Leicester (No. 996), vol. i. pp. cxxii.- cxxiv. The best account of Kirkby's Quest is in Inquisitions and Assessments (No. 2157), vol. i. pp. viii.-xxii. The original inquisition for the hundred of Roulowe, Bucks, is printed in full, ibid., i. 86-90. 3. Nomina Villarum (No. 2158). This document comprises returns made by sheriffs as to what cities, boroughs, and townships there were in each hundred or wapentake, and who were the lords thereof. This information was needed for a military levy in 9 Edward II. (1316), because each township was required to find one man-at-arms. Many of the public records mentioned in the preceding sections of this chapter also contain much material relating to Icnights' fees and to other feudal tenures : for example, Domesday Book and simUar surveys, § 50a ; the books of the exchequer, § 506 ; taxation rolls, especially the scutage rolls and the Book of Aids, § 50/ For local manorial records, see § 57 ; and for the modem literature concerning feudal tenures, §§ 22, 69.

In the second half of the twelfth century the poems of Nigel Wireker, John de Hauteville, and those ascribed to Walter Map (Nos. 2751, 2761) throw light on the corruptions of the church and the manners of the age. In the fourteenth century Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, and Piers Plowman (which goes under the name of Langland, No. 2759), illumine all sides of religious and social life ; Laurence Minot sings of the wars of Edward III., while Gower and the author of Richard the Redeless devote much attention to the government of Richard II. The poUtical poems from John to Richard III. (Nos. 2754-6^) reflect the popular sentiments of the times concerning political and religious questions. Some of them — for example, the Song of Lewes (No. 2755) — are of considerable historical value ; but after the reign of Edward III. their importance wanes.

The most important of the depositories was the prerogative court at Canter- bury, the records of which, beginning in 1383, are now in Somerset house, London. Many wills of persons d3dng within the province of Canterbury, from 1312 onward, are also preserved at Lambeth palace. The archbishop of Canterbury had exclusive right to grant probate of a will if the deceased person had goods in more than one diocese of the province of Canterbury. There was a similar archiepiscopal court of the province of York, the records of which, beginning in 1389, Eire now at York. Most of the wills formerly preserved in the diocesan courts, which were merged, in the court of probate in 1858, are now deposited in the district Digitized by Microsoft® § 68] Miscellaneous : Poetry, etc. 605 registries.

The best authorities are Pike, the Peers' Reports (No. 2944), Riess, and Stubbs, Constitutional History, especially ch. xx. See also §§ 18, 51 ; and, for the reign of Henry HI., see Shirley, Royal Letters (No. 2113), vol. ii. preface, and Bemont and Prothero (Nos. 2830, 2841). There is much valuable material relating to parliament and other institutions in the sessional papers of the house of commons, which are cited throughout the present work as ' Parliamentary Papers.' Before 1800 everything which would now be issued as a parliamentary paper was published in the journals or in the London Gazette. In 1800 many reports were collected and published as Reports from Committees of the House of Commons, 1715-1802 (15 vols, and index, London, 1773-1803). The regular publication of parliamentary papers began with those of 1801. They form a continuation of the Reports, and are numbered continuously under each session. An index will usually be found in the last volume for the session. There are also various general indexes, the most important of which are the Catalogue of Parliamentary Reports, 1696-1834 (London, 1834) ; three indexes comprising the years 1801-52, published Digitized by Microsoft® 636 A.D. 1066-1485 : Modern Writers [part it in 1854, which deal with bills, reports of committees, and ac- counts and papers respectively ; and a useful selected list. Catalogue of Parliamentary Papers, 1801-1900 (with a few of earlier date), London, [1904], and Supplement, to 1910, London, [1912]. For these and other indexes, see Gross, Bibliography (No. 66), 8-9 ; Index to Catalogue of Books in the Upper [Bates] Hall of the Boston Public Library (Boston, 1861), 335- 49, and Supplement (1866), 241-53.

COMMISSION The Royal Commission on Historical Manuscripts was established in 1869 ' to inquire what papers and manuscripts belonging to private families and institutions are extant which would be of utility in the illustration of history, constitutional law, science, and general literature, and to which possessors would be willing to give access.' The reports of the commission are published among the parliamentary papers. The first report appeared in 1870, the seven- teenth in 1907. Each report used to be followed by an elaborate appendix, which usually comprised several parts or volumes and contained valuable extracts from the documents examined ; but since 1899 calendars of manuscripts such as were formerly published as appendixes have been issued independently. Apart from the material thus published, the commission has accomplished much for the arrangement and preservation of local muniments. In order that each of the calendars of manuscripts now pub- lished independently may be presented in full in the lists given below, such volumes as may have already appeared as appendixes to earlier reports are listed a second time with the subsequent volumes under the name of the collection.
