English Episcopal Acta 29
This latest edition to the English Episcopal Acta series brings together for the first time edited versions of all the extant charters issued by the bishops of Durham between 1241 and 1283: Nicholas Farnham, Walter Kirkham, Robert Stichill and Robert of Holy Island (the last two, unusually at this date, monastic bishops). The surviving charters provide insights into episcopal administration and estate management in the mid-thirteenth-century diocese. A full introduction considers the lives of these little-studied bishops and the diplomatic of their charters, as well as the unusual structure of the episcopal households here. The bishops' itineraries are also given in an appendix. This volume complements EEA 24IR (0-19-726234-1) and EEA 25 (0-19-726235-X), which contained the acta from 1153 onwards.
Durham, 1153-1195
The latest volume of Acta presents 75 Latin texts, with notes, that record the charters of Hugh of le Puiset, Bishop of Durham from 1153-1195. The introduction also serves Volume 25, which will cover the years 1196-1237, and includes discussions of the households of all four bishops who held office between 1153 and 1237 and the types of Acta featured.
English Episcopal Acta
This volume, the second of two to cover the years 1196-1237, publishes the acta of Philip of Poitou, Richard Marsh and Richard Poore. Appendices present documents other than acta, including personal letters and itineraries. Pagination continues from the previous volume.
