Their role in shaping modern ideas of feudalism has aroused an intense debate among medievalists, leading to deep re-thinking of the ‘feudal’ vocabulary and categories.  This book offers an up-to-date English translation with a working Latin text introduced by a historical and historiographical overview of the Libri, thereby providing a valuable tool to understanding the long-standing importance of this collection over nine centuries of European history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface and Acknowledgements  Abbreviations    1 The Libri feudorum in Modern Historiography    2 The Formation of the Libri feudorum and Its Context   1 Before the Libri feudorum: Milan and Lombardy in the Eleventh Century   2 The Early Tracts (c. 1100–1136)   3 Fiefs and Vassals at the Time of the antiqua   4 The Romanisation of the Fief: Obertus de Orto and the antiqua   5 The Intermediate Recension Known as ardizzoniana   6 The Accursian Recension and the vulgata   7 The capitula extraordinaria    3 The Afterlife of the Libri feudorum   1 The Libri feudorum and the ius commune from the Thirteenth to the Fifteenth Century   2 The Libri feudorum in Late Medieval and Early Modern France   3 The Libri feudorum and Feudalism: Open Questions    4 Notes to Translation    Libri feudorum, compilatio vulgata: Book 1    Libri feudorum, compilatio vulgata: Book 2    Appendix 1: Capitula Extraordinaria Iacobi de Ardizone  Appendix 2: Capitula Extraordinaria Baraterii  Appendix 3: Edictum de beneficiis Regni Italici  Appendix 4: Synoptic Table  Glossary  Bibliography  Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210836009303,"sku":"9789004504547","price":104.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-libri-feudorum-the-books-of-fiefs-an-annotated-english-translation-of-the-vulgata-recension-with-latin-text-9789004504547","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
