Book synopsis

The concept of 'political culture' has become very fashionable in the last thirty years, but only recently has it been consciously taken up by practitioners of late-medieval English history, who have argued for the need to acknowledge the role of ideas in politics. While this work has focused on elite political culture, interest in the subject has been growing among historians of towns and villages, especially as they have begun to recognise the importance of both internal politics and national government in the affairs of townsmen and peasants. This volume, the product of a conference on political culture in the late middle ages, explores the subject from a variety of perspectives and in a variety of spheres. It is hoped that it will put the subject firmly on the map for the study of late-medieval England and lead to further exploration of political culture in this period. The contributors include Caroline Barron, Alan Cromartie, Christopher Dyer, Maurice Keen, Miri Rubin, Benjamin Thompson, John Watts, Jenny Wormald. Linda Clark is editor, History of Parliament; Christine Carpenter is Reader in History, University of Cambridge.
