By examining the life of these two individuals who both operated one of the rarest, most socially complex occupations of his place and time, this study begins to expose the ways in which usury helped to shape the fabric of late Medieval culture in the British Isles. The singular focus of this study and the use of manorial court rolls and debt records, which make such a close focus possible, have been criticized by scholars of the period.
