Description

Explore the complex social and legal landscape of sixteenth-century Lancashire with this historical study from Oxford University Press. Love, Hate, and the Law in Tudor England reconstructs the life of Ralph Rishton, a member of the local gentry known for his controversial personal history.

By examining dozens of lawsuits involving the Rishton family across various courts, this book explains how individuals used and misused the law to pursue their own interests. It provides a detailed look at how legal processes shaped perceptions of rights and mutual obligations during the Tudor period. This work is an essential resource for understanding the intersection of family life, property, and the legal framework in Tudor England.
