A new volume in the English Episcopal Acta series, this book draws together for the first time the surviving documents issued by the bishops of the small diocese of Rochester from the mid-thirteenth to the early-fourteenth century: men who varied from local monks to members of national government. These are administrative records but not just concerned with the dry details of bureaucracy. They provide us with a way to access the concerns and lives of ordinary individuals in one part of medieval England. The volume contains full texts of the Latin documents with English descriptions to help users, and a detailed introduction puts the records, and the diocese of Rochester, in their medieval context.
