Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the proceedings of a special commission appointed by Edward I in 1289 to investigate allegations of corruption, favoritism, and violence against the judges and other royal officers. Drawing from two plea rolls preserving the social proceedings of the trials, the author provides a vivid account of the issues at hand and the severity with which Edward I sought to impose order and instill a sense of justice within his ranks. The inclusion of a previously unpublished manuscript adds to the depth of research, shedding light on the broader context and thematic concerns of the era. Through meticulous analysis of the included cases, the author uncovers a complex web of accusations, revealing the inner workings of a justice system ripe for reform. This book is a valuable contribution to the study of late 13th-century English legal history, shedding light on the challenges and complexities of enforcing justice in a rapidly changing society.
