Description

The present instalment of the Calendar carries on from where the previous one (CPR XVI) left off, and covers the remaining chancery registers of Alexander VI (1492-1503) . The 996 page volume makes accessible, in English Calendar form, a mass of valuable material hitherto unknown. The entries concerns people and places throughout the British Isles, ranging from a dispensation for the poet laureate of Arthur, Prince of Wales, to the reform of a Benedictine abbey; and form the rehabilitation of an Irish man who had conspired against his bishop to the excommunication of marauding bands in the Scottish Highlands. Equipped with indices and apparatus, the volume is an essential research tool for student of British and Irish history in the pre-Reformation period.
