The Fifteenth Century V
`Of Mice and Men': Image, Belief and Regulation in Late Medieval England
Edited by Linda Clark

The themes of 'image' and 'representation' play a major part in the essays collected in this volume; subjects explored include the religious sympathies of townsfolk and gentry and their physical manifestations, the cultural setting for the activities of leading families of the period and the interaction of Crown and community of the realm. As the fruit of original archival research on the later Middle Ages, overall the contributions offer the most up-to-date scholarship on the period, and a snapshot of the most crucial issues in current research.
Contributors: CLIVE BURGESS, PAUL CAVILL, JON DENTON, THOMAS S. FREEMAN, ALASDAIR HAWKYARD, STEPHEN MILESON, JENNI NUTTALL, COLIN RICHMOND, ANNE F. SUTTON
