THE SECOND OF A TWO-VOLUME PROSOPOGRAPHY OF PERSONS OCCURRING IN THE
SOURCES OF POST-CONQUEST ENGLAND.
This second volume of persons named in English records between 1066
and 1166 follows on from its predecessor _Domesday People: [Of]
undoubted importance...in understanding the nature of Norman
aristocratic society and the forceswithin it... a monumental effort.
HISTORY_
Drawn from extensive and wide-ranging research in British and French
archives, the 7500 entries in this volume provide the first
authoritative prosopographical key to over 60,000 names found in
English administrative documents such as the Pipe Rolls and the
_Cartae Baronum_, as well as various Surveys and thousands of royal
and private charters. Both volumes focus upon regional origin, family,
and the descent of fees, and together they provide the most complete
view to date of the people responsible for the conquest and
colonization of England.
Dr K.S.B. KEATS-ROHAN is Director of the Linacre Unit for
Prosopographical Research and Fellow of the European Humanities
Research Centre, University of Oxford.
