Essays offering a guide to a vital source for our knowledge of medieval England.

The Inquisitions Post Mortem (IPMs) at the National Archives have been described as the single most important source for the study of landed society in later medieval England. Inquisitions were local enquiries into the lands heldby people of some status, in order to discover whatever income and rights were due to the crown on their death, and provide details both of the lands themselves and whoever held them. This book explores in detail for the first time the potential of IPMs as sources for economic, social and political history over the long fifteenth century, the period covered by this Companion. It looks at how they were made, how they were used, and their "accuracy",and develops our understanding of a source that is too often taken for granted; it answers questions such as what they sought to do, how they were compiled, and how reliable they are, while also exploring how they can best be usedfor economic, demographic, place-name, estate and other kinds of study.

Michael Hicks is Professor of Medieval History, University of Winchester.

Recenzijas

An extremely valuable and useful companion. * HISTORY, July 2013 * An indispensable introduction and guide. NORTHERN HISTORY, L, no. 2, September 2013 * . * This is a valuable collection likely to be widely used and referred to. The social and economic historian, as well as his political and administrative colleague, will find a tremendous amount to interest them here. * THE RICARDIAN * Provides a fascinating and detailed insight into this series of under-used medieval records. [ It] is rigorous in its academic quality, and an interesting and thoroughly enjoyable read. It highlights the enormous potential of these records for historians and genealogists alike, and will prove an essential companion to those intending to utilise these records in their future research. * LOCAL POPULATION STUDIES * Illustrates very successfully the wide-ranging historical value of the inquisitions and the benefits of their availability in calendared form. * REVIEWS IN HISTORY *
