Thompson, K. (2019) The widow and the ward: the perils of the Dunstanvilles at the turn of the 12th and 13th centuries. Sussex Archaeological Collections, 156. pp. 101-115. ISSN 0143-8204
Abstract
The history of the Dunstanville family at the turn of the 13th century provides a Sussex case study of two issues that underlay baronial discontent and the concession of Magna Carta: the guardianship of an heir and the treatment of widows. It also raises broader questions about the restrictions faced by women of the Anglo-Norman elite.
