Subject: SC - LONG! - coronation feasts and purchases

 

Sutton, Anne F. and PW Hammond, The Coronation of Richard III:

the Extant Documents, New York; St. Martin's Press, 1983.

 

The Manuscript.

 

These menus occur on folios 71-78 of the British

Museum Additional MS. 45,716A. The coronation feast's menu and

its accompanying 'proportion' describing the requirements of the

offices of the royal Household employed in providing the feast is

only headed as for King Richard on Sunday 6 July and it seems that

the copyist ascribed it to the year 1327. The date of Sunday 6 July

can only refer to the coronation of Richard III. This is corroborated

by the internal evidence of the one personal name which occurs in

the manuscript, john Lamplew. Lamplew was a grocer of London

in Richard III's day, and was a supplier of the short lived

Household of Edward V. The titles of the preceding menus for the

Friday and Saturday mention neither king nor date but the

sequence of days is correct for Richard III's coronation. It was

customary for the king to stay at the Tower of London before his

coronation, the vigil of the prospective knights of the Bath being

held, in this case, on the Friday night and the actual creation on the

Saturday morning, followed by the dinner described in this

manuscript and the procession of the king from the Tower to the

Palace of Westminster where he spend the night immediately

preceding his coronation. The hand of these eight folios is smaller

and neater, at least to start with, than that of the preceding pages

which gives a further impression of a single copied piece of work.

this and the unity of the subject matter in particular convince the

editors that the whole should be ascribed to the coronation of

Richard and not just the coronation feast entitled for King Richard.

British Library Additional MS. 45,617A is a folio volume of 126

leaves, its original limp vellum cover still in place within its new

British Library one. On this vellum cover is written 'Anno xxximo

Regis H. viijvi. The booke of the Newe Ordinarye of the kinges

most honerable houshold'. On the flyleaf is 'Liber Willelmi Dunche'.

It is a book of the royal Household in use from 1540 to probably

1543-4 since it refers to the establishment of Queen Catherine

Howard. It is mainly a collection of ordinances, lists of wages,

declarations of bouche of court, lists of household officers and bills

of fare. These are mostly of 31 Henry VIII with copies of earlier

records of ceremonies such as the Richard III menus and

proportions which were of interest and use to the compiler of the

book.

. . . . .

Editorial Procedure. The manuscript is in an informal and often

careless hand. As has been mentioned, it starts as a neat copy but

rapidly deteriorates to a scrawl by its finish. It was probably

written by the same person who wrote the rest of the 'Liber

Willelmi Dunche'. The menus and proportions here transcribed are

in a curious mixture of English, Latin and some French, lapsing

from one to either with no observable rules in the manner not

uncommon in manuscripts covering similar subjects. It is highly

abbreviated and it is occasionally very difficult to know which

language is intended when the word has the same root in more

than one of the three alternatives. It is also clear that the copyist did

not always understand his original and did not always take very

much care to be accurate when he did. The editors have attempted

to rationalize the confusion. The menus themselves have been

rendered exactly. For the rest, the Latin has been translated except

where a translation would be ridiculous, as for 'aqua vite'. The

English or French of the original has been put between inverted

commas. Throughout, any abbreviated word, of which an

extended form occurs elsewhere in the manuscript, has been

extended. Any apparently otiose abbreviation and the copious use

of a paragraph mark at the beginning of most items in the

proportions have been ignored. Punctuation and capitals have been

modernized. Roman have been replaced by arabic numerals and

pries and weights are given in the modern style. . . . .
