Ambuhl, Remy. Prisoners of war in the Hundred Years War [electronic resource] : ransom culture in the late Middle Ages / Remy Ambuhl. Cambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2013. xiv, 301 p. : ill. Includes bibliographical references and index. Machine generated contents note: Introduction; 1. Law, ransom and the status of the prisoner of war; 2. Princes, masters and prisoners; 3. Status and politics in Lancastrian Normandy; 4. The process of ransoming (I) from capture to captivity; 5. The practice of ransoming (II) the price of freedom; 6. Merchants, banking and trade; 7. Assistance to prisoners I: vassals and subjects - the end of customary aids?; 8. Assistant to prisoners II: kings and princes - first or last resort?; 9. Assistance to prisoners III: the social circle of the prisoner; Conclusion. "The status of prisoners of war was firmly rooted in the practice of ransoming in the Middle Ages. By the opening stages of the Hundred Years War, ransoming had become widespread among the knightly community, and the crown had already begun to exercise tighter control over the practice of war. The resulting tensions between public and private interests over ransoms and prisoners of war were apparent. Historians have long emphasised the significance of the French and English crowns' interference in the issue of prisoners of war, but this original and stimulating study questions whether they have been too influenced by the state-centred nature of most surviving sources. Based on extensive archival research, this book tests customs, laws and theory against the individual experiences of captors and prisoners during the Hundred Years War, to evoke their world in all its complexity"-- Provided by publisher.
