Conspicuous consumption in the 15th century both offers causes for revolt and allows reconstruction of regional supply and trading networks.

The essays in this volume focus on the sources and resources of political power, on consumption (royal and lay, conspicuous and everyday) on political revolution and on economic regulation in the later middle ages. Topics range from the diet of the nobility in the fifteenth century to the knightly household of Richard II and the peace commissions, while particular case studies, of Middlesex, Cambridge, Durham Cathedral and Winchester, shed new light on regional economies through an examination of the patterns of consumption, retailing, and marketing.Professor MICHAEL HICKS teaches at King Alfred's College at Winchester.Contributors: CHRISTOPHER WOOLGAR, ALASTAIR DUNN, SHELAGH MITCHELL, ALISON GUNDY, T.B. PUGH, JESSICA FREEMAN, JOHN HARE, JOHN LEE, MIRANDA THRELFALL-HOLMES, WINIFRED HARWOOD, PETER FLEMING.

Hicks adeptly draws out the themes of this diverse and rewarding volue, rightly observing hat it reflects the vigour and debate of late medieval studies. ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW Fifteenth-century studies are very much alive and well... able to generate new and challenging research agendas. This excellent collection reflects that well. * ECONOMIC HISTORY REVIEW *
