Pipe Rolls - Publication

Publication

The Pipe Roll Society, a text publication society founded by the Public Record Office in 1883, has published the Pipe rolls up to the year 1223. The Pipe Roll Society publications started in 1884 and have continued to the present day. Besides the continuous series to 1223, they have also published the roll for 1230. The Chancellor's roll for 1196 has also been published by the Pipe Roll Society, along with other related works.

The Pipe rolls have also been published by the Public Records Commission, which published in four volumes in 1833 and 1844, that covered the earliest Pipe rolls until the first year of Richard I's reign. The Pipe rolls for 1241 were published in 1918 by the Yale University Press. Various county record societies have published parts of the Pipe rolls for various years that relate to the particular county. Rolls for the Irish Exchequer and the Norman Exchequer have also been published.

Famous quotes containing the word publication:

    I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    Of all human events, perhaps, the publication of a first volume of verses is the most insignificant; but though a matter of no moment to the world, it is still of some concern to the author.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    An action is the perfection and publication of thought. A right action seems to fill the eye, and to be related to all nature.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
