Über den Autor / die Autorin

Stephen Mileson started working for the Victoria County History of Oxfordshire in 2005 and has so far been researching and writing about the history of Henley-on-Thames and surrounding Chilterns parishes in the far south of the county. He has also been Lecturer in Medieval History at St Edmund Hall, Oxford since 2006, and previously worked on the Cambridge University Inquisitions Post Mortem editing project. His research interests include the social history of the medieval aristocracy and agrarian and landscape history.

Zusammenfassung

Parks were prominent and controversial features of the medieval countryside, but they have been unevenly studied and remain only partly understood. Mileson provides the first full-length study of the subject, examining parks across the country and throughout the Middle Ages in their full social, economic, jurisdictional, and landscape context.
