Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of medieval English feudalism, offering a unique glimpse into the Crownââ â¢s relationship with its subjects during the reign of Henry II. Drawing on original source material, the author meticulously analyzes the *Rotuli de Dominabus et Pueris et Puelllis de XII Comitatibus,* a set of records from 1185 that documented the Crownââ â¢s rights over widows, minors, and heiresses. This record is of great historical significance as it provides detailed information about the Crownââ â¢s financial exactions, the practices of wardship and marriage, and the social and economic conditions of the time. The author explores the various forms of Crown revenue, from the lands of wards to the aids and reliefs extracted from tenants. The book also provides valuable insights into the Crown's role in arranging marriages for wards, shedding light on a practice that was often controversial and subject to abuse. This meticulously researched and engaging work offers a fresh perspective on the complexities of medieval English feudal society.
