Past & Present Supplements
A Letter from the Editors
For many years we have published the Past and Present Publications series alongside the journal, and this has comprised monographs, translations, conference proceedings and collections of essays. These are tough times for publishers, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to publish collections of essays that we wanted to produce. However, rather than cutting back our publications, we have decided to change instead the way we publish. The book series will continue but will focus on book-length studies. With the agreement of Oxford University Press Journals, we decided to set up in addition a Supplements series that will be a new form of publication, combining the best of journal and book publication. We will produce one volume every year, which will be sent out free to subscribers but which can also be purchased by non-subscribers as a book. This will also be available on line and will be, like the journal, fully searchable.

Rodney Hilton's Middle Ages: An Exploration of Historical Themes
This collection of essays, based on original research, is an exploration of the sort of themes which Rodney Hilton worked on, in the light of recent research: particularly lord-peasant relationships, revolts, and urban/commercial development. It aims at summing up where these themes are at present and where they will go in the future. The volume was edited by Christopher Dyer, Peter Coss and Chris Wickham.
