Excellent- More about Scripting Justice in Late Medieval Europe: Legal Practice and Communication in the Law Courts of Utrecht, York and Paris
Late medieval societies saw the rise of a law court and its legal process, influenced by legal pluralism and multimedial interaction. This book argues that the development of law courts was grounded in changing forms of interaction between those who sought justice and those who provided it, tracing the communication strategies of these claimants to socio-legal authority through a comparative study of three different types of courts.

Late medieval societies experienced the emergence of a distinct socio-legal practice and logic, centered on the law court and its legal process. In a landscape of legal pluralism, courts sought to establish their unique position by shaping perceptions of justice and the means to attain it. These "scripts of justice" took form through various mediums, including texts, speeches, embodied activities, and the spaces utilized for these purposes. This book departs from traditional historiographical narratives of state building or the professionalization of law, arguing that the development of law courts was rooted in evolving forms of multimedial interaction between individuals seeking justice and those claiming to provide it. Through a comparative study of three distinct types of courts, encompassing local contexts and broader developments, it delves into the communication strategies employed by these late medieval claimants to assert socio-legal authority.
