Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Henry of Pytchley's Book of Fees' serves as a vital historical record of feudal land tenure and medieval administration within the county of Northamptonshire. This scholarly work offers a detailed examination of the complex relationships between landholders, the crown, and the church during a period when the feudal system governed the social and economic landscape of England. By providing a meticulous account of the distribution of estates and the specific obligations tied to various parcels of land, the text illuminates the granular details of medieval governance.This second volume focuses on the documentation of fees and holdings, shedding light on the genealogical and legal history of the region. It provides a wealth of information regarding names, places, and the evolving legal structures that defined the medieval era. It is an essential resource for historians, genealogists, and students of legal history interested in the bureaucratic processes of the Middle Ages and the socioeconomic frameworks of provincial English life. The work stands as a testament to the rigorous record-keeping traditions that allow modern researchers to reconstruct the intricate hierarchy of medieval society.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
