Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides an insight into the rich tapestry of 12th and 13th century life in Derbyshire by bringing together charters not previously published. These valuable documents chart the landscape, economy, society, and everyday life and the religious and social networks of Medieval Derbyshire. They encompass subjects as diverse as food, agriculture, marriage and trade. They are derived from a wide range of sources and reflect the influence of the county's geography, from the wild moors of the Peak District to the fertile agricultural land of the Trent Valley. Many are connected to religious institutions and demonstrate the importance of the Church in the lives of medieval people, and how the Church shaped the county's landscape by establishing abbeys, churches and monastic orders. With contributions from leading experts and lavishly illustrated, this book will be of interest to local and family historians and anyone with an interest in medieval social history. It demonstrates the variety of sources available for medieval research, and contributes to our knowledge of medieval social life and the role of the Church at that time.
