Religious Choice in the Dutch Republic
How did people learn their Bibles in the Middle Ages? Did church murals, biblical manuscripts, sermons or liturgical processions transmit the Bible in the same way?This book unveils the dynamics of biblical knowledge and dissemination in thirteenth- and fourteenth-century England. An extensive and interdisciplinary survey of biblical manuscripts and visual images, sermons and chants, reveals how the unique qualities of each medium became part of the way the Bible was known and recalled; how oral, textual, performative and visual means of transmission joined to present a surprisingly complex biblical worldview. This study of liturgy and preaching, manuscript culture and talismanic use introduces the concept of biblical mediation, a new way to explore Scriptures and society. It challenges the lay-clerical divide by demonstrating that biblical exegesis was presented to the laity in non-textual means, while the 'naked text' of the Bible remained elusive even for the educated clergy.

The Politics of Fifteenth-century England
This book is an edition of British Library Additional MS. 48031A, coming from the Yelverton Collection. The manuscript is a collection of documents compiled by John Vale, a servant to Thomas Cook, junior, alderman and Mayor of London during the mid to later fifteenth century. Many of the documents, almost certainly copied by Vale soon after his master's death in 1478, reflect the political life of the time. This edition begins with three introductory chapters by specialists in London history, bibliographical studies, political ideas and diplomacy, which put the manuscript, and those who helped produce it, into context. These are followed by a calendar or transcript of every item in the manuscript. This book provides an overview of English politics and London affairs before and during the Wars of the Roses and will be an excellent source of documents of the period.
