The fruits of new research on the politics, society and culture of England in the fourteenth century.The essays collected here engage with many of the most important themes and subjects of the period. In addition to addressing matters of kingship and changing theories of power, they tackle questions concerning loyalty and rebellion at the centre of authority and on its margins; the role of law, both domestic and international; the nature of memory - legal, historical and fabricated; and the relationship between the Plantagenets and the rulers of those nations and territories over which England claimed dominion. In so doing, the collection offers important new insights into political and social developments at times of major turmoil, including Edward I's war with Scotland, the deposition of Edward II, and the Peasants' Revolt of 1381, while also exploring the mechanisms used to ensure peace and the smooth-running of a kingdom during a time of immense change.

With just a little practice, AND some useful tools and techniques, you can learn to speak like a pro within just a short period of time. Whether you are giving a wedding speech, presiding over your first meeting, presenting to your peers, delivering a sales pitch or presenting your first talk to a large audience, this book will give you everything that you will ever need to know to present like a pro, feel more comfortable about doing so, and impressing any audience, large or small.

You may have been the victim of psychic attack and never even realised it. And the symptoms could still be affecting you to this day. The human mind and body are affected by the many subtle and psychic frequencies that surround us. Our moods, feelings, and even our state of health are influenced by the ebb and flow of these energies, and our well-being depends upon our own ability to defend and protect ourselves from them. Psychic Self Defence provides a highly practical, common sense, everyday approach to all forms of psychic attack. This is the ultimate user manual for what the author has coined as "The Health and Safety of Spirituality", and it is a must for all spiritual, psychic and alternative workers, practitioners and spiritual seekers everywhere.
