Description
Reviews
The book has been well planned, with thirteen substantive chapters and a very long and valuable introduction. There is extensive cross-referencing, and evidence of discussion among contributors at the workshops that preceded the book. This book thus gives political historians much to ponder. It is particularly thought-provoking to see counsel placed, as it often is here, in a broader context. * Julian Goodare, History *
this is a superbly-edited collection that makes an excellent addition to the scholarship on counsel in medieval and early modern England and Scotland * Aidan Norrie, The University of Warwick, Parergon *
a valuable selection of work on the interlinking thoughts on, and mediums of, counsel that breaks several conceptual and chronological boundaries and one that should form an indispensable resource for those interested in the theories, practices and problems of authority in medieval and early modern Britain. * Matthew Raven, Reviews in History *
