Grace Book Gamma: Containing the Records of the University of Cambridge for the Years 1501-1542

‘Grace books’ were the volumes in which scribes recorded decisions of the administration of the University of Cambridge during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Grace Book , first published in 1908, is the third of the Grace Books, Books A and B having been published in three volumes during the preceding decade. While Grace Books A and B included details of financial transactions, this volume focuses on the conferral of degrees by examination and incorporation, and on various dispensations. This compilation, with a substantial introduction and index by William George Searle and J. W. Clark, constitutes a valuable source for those researching British history and institutions in the early Tudor period, and this reissue will make them readily available to scholars today.
