Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delivers an insightful study of the history and development of the English Earldom of Oxford. It traces the origin of the earldom to the Norman Conquest and follows its descent through twenty generations of the illustrious de Vere family. The author provides a detailed account of the earls' roles in English politics and society, exploring their military exploits, political alliances, and cultural patronage. The book offers a comprehensive analysis of the legal and social status of the earldom, including the limitation of its inheritance to heirs male, a provision that was unique among English earldoms. Through its examination of the de Vere family's rise, fall, and eventual restoration, this book sheds light on the nature and evolution of the English aristocracy during the Middle Ages and beyond.
