`The Right Ordering of Souls` – The Parish of All Saints` Bristol on the Eve of the Reformation
Autor Clive Burgessen Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 apr 2018
Buildings apart, the scarcity of pre-Reformation parish records means, however, that the resonances of this response, and the manner in which parishioners organised their worship, are ordinarily lost to us. This book, using the remarkable survival of records for one parish - All Saints', Bristol, in the later fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries - scrutinises the investment that the faithful made. Ifnot necessarily typical, it is undeniably revealing, going further than any previous study to expose and explain parishioners' priorities, practices and achievements in the late Middle Ages. In so doing, it also charts a world that would soon vanish.
Dr CLIVE BURGESS holds a Senior Lectureship in late medieval history at Royal Holloway, University of London.
