Hardcover. Zustand: New. Nine hundred years ago--in 1086--William the Conqueror launched the great Domesday Survey of England to ascertain the extent and value of his newly acquired lands. Commissioners were sent to every county to discover the names of landowners and their tenants, as well as those who had owned land in the time of Edward the Confessor (d. 1066), the extent of the cultivated territory, and the value of land, plows, and livestock. The returns from the various counties were collected, corrected and abridged, and fair-copied by one writer. Since this was accepted as the final authoritative register of rightful possession, people called it Domesday Book, by analogy with the Day of Judgment. This is considered to be one of the most important books ever written. The full Latin text was printed once, in 1783, but in 900 years there has never been a complete English translation! To set this situation to rights, the late Dr. John Morris undertook the task of translating and annotating the text in its entirety. After fifteen years, when the last of the thirty-five volumes came off the press, this mammoth project was completed by Phillimore & Co. of England--in time for the Ninth Centenary of the Domesday Survey in 1986. It is hard to exaggerate the importance of this work or to overstate its achievement. Now the general public has access to the work that codified the structure of English society. To students of local history and genealogy, to scholars who want to reexamine the evidence on which modern scholarship rests, or to explore areas of social and administrative structure which have received less attention, this work is absolutely basic. To preserve the original arrangement of Domesday Book this edition is arranged by counties, one county per numbered volume. It also corrects the few errors in the 18th-century Latin text while providing a parallel, modern English translation. Detailed notes on the text and translation are one of the features of this work, which also includes biographical sketches of some of the principal figures named in the Survey, translations of related contemporary documents, statistical summaries, descriptions of local places, maps, indexes of names and places, and an explanation of technical terms.

The significance of Domesday Book was perceived at an early stage by scholars such as Selden, who printed extracts at the end of his edition of Eadmer in 1623. Domesday Book itself was held under lock and key and could only be consulted for a fee, with an additional charge of fourpence for each line transcribed. Without a complete printed edition scholar's regard for Domesday was combined with an ignorance of its general contents, until 1783 when this edition was printed at the behest of a Royal Comission. It was printed in record type, designed for the occasion by J. Nicholls and cut by J. Jackson (former apprentice of William Caslon the elder), and later destroyed in the Westminster fire of 1834. Douglas, in his work English Scholars 1660-1730, expresses the view that Farley's achievement has been 'shamefully neglected', and that 'he produced one of the most accurate and reliable transcripts in the history of English scholarship'. Title-pages to theses volumes were supplied by the Record Commission in 1816, and two subsequent volumes (comprising additions and index) were provided in 1811 and 1816. ESTC 097297; Upcott p.xiii.…

Pre-Publication Fair Copy of the Devonshire Chapter of the Domesday Book [Manuscript]. [Domesday Book]. No. 23. V 1.2. Domesday Book for Devonshire. London?, c.1714-1783. 73 ff. Folio (15-1/2" x 10-1/2"; 39.37 x 26.67 cm). Marbled paper-covered limp boards, raised bands to spine, hand-lettered title panel to front cover. Rubbing and soiling to boards, spine and extremities with wear to spine ends and corners, sections of marbled paper rubbed away, chip to lower corner of title panel, minor worming to rear cover, pastedown and endleaves, two tiny stab-holes though rear half of text block. Light toning to leaves, text in neat hand to rectos of leaves, neat contemporary annotations in pencil to margins. $1,250. * Commissioned by William the Conqueror in 1085, the Domesday Book stands as the definitive census and property survey of early medieval England, and one of the most significant statistical documents in European history. Though it remained in manuscript form for nearly seven centuries, the British government officially initiated a massive project to print and publish the entire work in 1773 under the supervision of archivist Abraham Farley. This culminated in the landmark two-volume typographic edition of 1783. Carefully arranged, remarkably clean, and virtually free of contemporary corrections, this faithful transcription of the Devonshire chapter represents a pre-publication fair copy likely produced during the build-up to the 1783 printed edition. The watermark on several leaves features the "G.R." (Georgius Rex) cipher under a crown, placing the paper firmly within the Hanoverian Era. Given the intense scholarly and bureaucratic efforts surrounding the public record commissions in the latter half of the 18th century, this manuscript is a compelling artifact of Britain's first great state-sponsored editorial project. The neat, contemporary marginal pencil annotations focus primarily on identifying local family names, place-names, and geographic landmarks, indicating its use by an early historian, antiquarian, or legal researcher. * The Domesday Book is a comprehensive census and survey of English landowners and their property commissioned by William the Conqueror in 1085. It is probably the most remarkable statistical document in the history of Europe. The British government initiated a project to.…
