Description

Ian Mortimer's Medieval Intrigue Decoding Royal Conspiracies is a groundbreaking work that challenges long-held assumptions about medieval history. By applying an innovative approach to historical analysis, Mortimer sheds new light on some of the most contentious questions in the period, including the fate of Edward II and the origins of the royal pretender. Mortimer's method, based on information-based analysis, offers a fresh perspective on the evidence that has shaped our understanding of the past. He critiques existing approaches to historical consensus and outlines a rigorous process for evaluating historical texts, leading to a more nuanced understanding of medieval history. This book is a significant contribution from one of the most respected medieval historians of his generation, offering insights into the complexities and mysteries of the medieval period.
