This new edition contains the texts and brand new translations of two key documents of twelfth-century English history. The Dialogus de Scaccario (Dialogue of the Exchequer) is a medieval financial manual written by a royal official, Richard fitzNigel: it describes the sources of royal revenue, details the functions of those collected money for the king, and explains how the exchequer maintained control over the king's money. The Constitutio
Domus Regis lists the job titles and allowances of those people whose responsibility was to look after the domestic needs of the king and his court circle. Together the Dialogus and the Constitutio provide a window into the workings and personnel of medieval English government, and the editors offer extensive notes to to
guide the reader.
