Creasing to back cover bottom margin (see picture). ; 23.8 x 15.2 x 1.1 cms; iii, 102 pages; The Thame Cartulary is a medieval manuscript compiling charters and documents related to the properties and rights of the Thame Abbey in Oxfordshire, England. Cartularies like this were essential for monastic communities to document land grants, legal rights, and transactions, serving both as records of ownership and as tools to assert and defend property claims. ? While Volume 1 focuses on the abbey's holdings and privileges, it provides valuable insights into the economic, social, and legal aspects of medieval monastic life. The documents within detail interactions between the abbey and local nobility, clergy, and laypeople, reflecting the broader societal structures of the time.
