Description

This book brings together a collection of chapters reflecting the scholarship of Tom Beaumont James, Emeritus Professor at the University of Winchester, in advancing the study of medieval and early modern artefacts, buildings, gardens, and towns. The seventeen essays represent substantive contributions on specific topics and many of the authors started out as Tom's students. Some focus on buildings, others on people, some on documentary evidence and some on material culture. The chapters range chronologically from early medieval Southampton through sixteenth-century Winchester to an analysis of that city's nineteenth-century censuses. Although the work coheres around central Southern England there are also papers on Edward I's Tower of London, the medieval and early modern gardens of two Oxford colleges, and the English occupation of Normandy in the fifteenth century.

Author Biography:

Amanda Richardson is Senior Lecturer in Late Medieval History at the University of Chichester. Her PhD on the medieval forest and park of Clarendon, Wiltshire, was supervised by Tom James. Amanda's main research avenue is medieval and postmedieval deer parks, and she has also published extensively on gender and space. Mark Allen specialises in nineteenth-century social and economic history and is Senior Lecturer in Modern History at the University of Winchester. With Tom James, he co-directs The Winchester Project, which traces the city's property history from 1550 onwards. They have also co-authored The 1871 Census of Winchester (2006).
