Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the rich tapestry of medieval English history through the lens of "Inquisitions post mortem," a legal process used to determine the inheritance of deceased individuals who held land from the Crown. The author meticulously details the findings of these inquiries, illuminating the lives and property holdings of nobles, landowners, and ordinary people during the reign of Edward I (1272-1307). Through these records, the book offers a unique glimpse into the social hierarchy, land ownership patterns, and legal procedures of the period. The author's careful examination of the inquisitions reveals not only the names and lineages of individuals but also sheds light on family relationships, property disputes, and the intricate web of feudal obligations. The book highlights the importance of these records as primary historical sources, allowing scholars and enthusiasts alike to reconstruct a vivid picture of medieval England. It demonstrates how the "Inquisitions post mortem" served not only as legal instruments but also as a crucial window into the economic, political, and social realities of a pivotal era in English history.
