Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating history of a medieval monastic institution, specifically the alien priory of Newington Longeville, a cell of the Abbey of Longeville Giffard in Normandy. The author meticulously traces the prioryââ â¢s history, charting its origins in the 11th century through its acquisition by New College, Oxford, in the 15th century. The book's narrative weaves together legal documents, charters, and other historical records to shed light on the prioryââ â¢s landholdings, financial transactions, and relationships with other religious institutions. The author skillfully explores the broader context of alien priories during the medieval period, highlighting the unique challenges they faced, particularly during times of war with France. Through the prioryââ â¢s story, the book reveals intricate details of medieval land tenure, the transfer of tithes, and the evolution of monastic endowments. Additionally, the author analyzes the priory's lack of monastic buildings, a unique characteristic of many alien priories, and the evolving relationship between the priory and its mother house in Normandy. This book provides a valuable contribution to our understanding of monastic life in medieval England, illuminating the complexities of these institutions, their interactions with lay society, and their evolving legal and social status.
