Title: The urban church in late medieval England
Description: "Here are twenty-five peer-reviewed essays by leading historians exploring the distinctive aspects which the urban environment brought to late-medieval religious life. The essays are gathered in six sections ranging from liturgy, music and fabric, parish politics, the relationships between the religious orders and between them and the laity, the life of the church in smaller towns (different from the life in the cities and the villages), the role of the church in charity, and aspects of clerical devotion expressed in monumental sculpture and literature."--Page 4 of cover
