The Life of William of Wykeham is a biographical work written by Augusta Theodosia Drane in 1890. The book chronicles the life and accomplishments of William of Wykeham, a prominent figure in medieval England who served as bishop of Winchester and Lord Chancellor under King Richard II. Drane provides a detailed account of Wykeham's early life, education, and rise to power in the church and government. She also explores his contributions to the construction of Winchester College and New College, Oxford, two important educational institutions that he founded. Throughout the book, Drane offers insights into the political and social climate of fourteenth-century England, shedding light on the challenges that Wykeham faced as he navigated the complex world of church and state. The Life of William of Wykeham is a valuable resource for historians, scholars of medieval England, and anyone interested in the life and legacy of this influential figure.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
