Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of town charters and trade guilds in medieval England. The author provides Latin and English transcriptions of key historical documents such as the charters for the cities of Lincoln, Southampton, Chester, and Wallingford, as well as regulations from craft guilds such as the tailors of Exeter and the spurriers of London. These documents, discussed within the context of medieval trade and industry, reveal how these guilds established a system of local governance, standardized working practices, and offered social and religious support to their members. The author considers the broader social, economic, and political implications of their development and delineates the ways in which these organizations profoundly influenced urban life in the Middle Ages. This book offers valuable insights into the development of English municipalities and the intricate web of regulations that governed medieval urban society.
