Description

This scholarly work challenges the conventional narrative that England lagged significantly behind other European nations in adopting forensic medicine for death investigation. Through examination of the coroner's inquest system, the author presents a nuanced analysis of how medical practitioners actually participated in medieval death investigations, revealing a more complex picture than previously assumed. The book explores the medieval relationship between medicine and law enforcement, demonstrating that whilst medical professionals did contribute to inquests, their involvement was selective and context-dependent rather than systematic. Drawing on primary sources and historical evidence, this volume offers fresh insights into the administrative and investigative practices of medieval England, making it essential reading for historians, legal scholars, and those interested in the evolution of forensic science. Part of the Routledge Research in Medieval Studies series, it provides an important reassessment of how medieval society approached the investigation of suspicious deaths and the role of expert knowledge in judicial proceedings.
