Overview

This latest addition to the English Episcopal Acta series publishes the surviving acta of the bishops of Exeter from 1046 to 1184, beginning with English-born Leofric (1046-27) who transferred the see from Credition to Exeter, and concluding with the lawyer and theologian Bartholomew (1161-84). It covers a time which witnessed major changes in the government of this extensive diocese, the redefinition of the bishop's jurisdictional powers, and the creation of territorial archdeaconries.
This edition contains an introduction which encompasses the material in both Exeter volumes, and an index will appear at the end of Volume XII. Together, these volumes will provide an invaluable resource for historians of south-west England in the Middle Ages.
