Dataset description

This dataset contains data associated with the author’s doctoral thesis, which is available at http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/6432/ Warren, Eleanor Margaret (2013) Community and identity in the shadow of York Minster: the medieval Chapel of St Mary and the Holy Angels. PhD thesis, University of Leeds. The Chapel of St Mary and the Holy Angels was founded next to York Minster in the late 1170s by Archbishop Roger of Pont L’Évêque, and was reformed in 1258 by Archbishop Sewal de Bovill. Copies of these two foundation charters survive in the fourteenth-century archiepiscopal registers of William Greenfield. Transcriptions and translations of these two charter copies. The charters list the chapel’s endowments as the following parish churches within the medieval Diocese of York: Otley, Bardsey, Everton, Hayton, Sutton with the chapel of Scroby, Calverley, Hooton Pagnell, Harewood, Thorp Arch, Retford, Clarborough with its chapels of Gringley, Welham and Bolham, and Collingham. Data relating to the prosopographical study of the chapel’s canons from c. 1380-1520, which is the focus of Chapter Four within the thesis. Transcriptions and translations of sections of the York Antiphonal (Arundel Castle Archives, MS s.n. ‘York Antiphonal’), covering the general rubrics, First Sunday of Advent up to Feria 2 (fols 3r-11r), and Maundy Thursday to Easter Sunday (fols 89v-101v). These partial transcriptions of the York Antiphonal are made available in this dataset with permission from the Duke of Norfolk’s Librarian. A full digitised copy of the York Antiphonal is available from The Digital Image Archive of Medieval Music (DIAMM) www.diamm.ac.uk. Photographs of York Minster taken by the author in November 2009 and February 2010, showing surviving architectural features of the Chapel of St Mary and the Holy Angels (internal and external door), window nXXVIII above the door showing Marian iconography, and Archbishop Melton’s west window of the nave.
