内容説明

This work cross-references the persons mentioned in each document with other biographical resources, offering a critical analysis. The examination challenges many of Bernard Guillemain's conclusions regarding the documents' dates and purposes, and these challenges can only enhance our understanding of the Avignonese population during the late fourteenth century. These documents which include the names, places of origin, and sometimes the occupations of those listed offer a window into the population of the late medieval capital of Christendom. To keep the work within a reasonable scope, the author limited the cross-referencing endnotes to the location of the information. Interested readers should be able to compile individual biographies from these endnotes rather easily. The author has made every effort to identify not only leading persons, but also the commoners who have left clear traces. Though the information in the three documents is scant, a display of individuals' names, occupations, and places of origin can create a better appreciation for the Avignonese population than could mere numbers in a column.
