| book description |
This volume of essays draws together research from the twelfth to the twentieth century and across the eight counties of the ancient diocese of Lincoln, in tribute to one of its most important historians. For over 50 years Dr Nicholas Bennett has been one of the lynchpins of academic research in Lincolnshire as archivist, academic and general editor of the Lincoln Record Society. The essays collected here consist of contributions from Dr Bennett's colleagues on the Council of Lincoln Record Society. The volume includes editions of previously unpublished records as well as new analysis of more familiar texts, through examinations of medieval secular and ecclesiastical records, nineteenth-century accounts and twentieth-century magazines. The articles demonstrate how the concerns and challenges of Church and State remain remarkably similar over 800 years; they also allow the reader to engage with the lives of great men and of those who are otherwise unknown, including bishops and rectors, justices and criminals, and widows and suffragettes.
