Abstract by FMG - 16 Nov 2002
The calendar is based on a Latin edition of the register, which the editor translated and submitted as a doctoral thesis. He provides an extensive introduction (43 pages) and a copy of Wakefeld's will. The Calendar itself provides a wealth of material pertaining to diocesan administration in the late middle ages, including Institutions, Letters and Writs, Ordinations, and a few Wills.
