Although the Norman Conquest of 1066 swept away most of the secular and ecclesiastical leaders of preConquest England, it held some positive aspects for English society, such as its effects on AngloSaxon monastic foundations, which this study explores. The first part deals in depth with five individual case studies (Abingdon, Gloucester, Bury St Edmunds, St Albans and St Augustine's, Canterbury) as well as Fenland and other houses, showing how despite mixed fortunes the major houses survived to become the richest in England. The second part places the experiences of the houses in the context of structural changes in religious patronage as well as within the social and political nexus of the AngloNorman realm. Dr Cownie analyses the pattern of gifts to religious houses on both sides of the Channel, looking at the reasons why they were made. EMMA COWNIEgained her Ph.D. from the University of Wales at Cardiff.
