The Office of the Coroner - 1276 - Part 2
•
Season 1
•
Episode 8
So let me put you in my situation, you have just researched and recorded an episode on the role of the Coroner in Medieval England without being able to find the primary source legislation. As you begin to research the next episode (the Statute of Bigamy) you then find the text of the Office of the Coroner. in both English and Latin from a book published in 1761.
What do you do, do you ignore this and continue or do you attempt a short episode on the Office of the Coroner, well the latter.
