Biography
John Palmer spent his academic career (1965–2004) at the University of Hull, UK. England, France and Christendom (1972) for R&KP was followed by articles in English, French and American journals and various festschriften in the later 1970s and early 1980s, during which time his research interests switched from the fourteenth to the eleventh century and to Domesday Book, publishing with J. McN. Dodgson the three volume indices of Places, Persons and Subjects (1992), then Domesday Explorer (2000), and finally the online digitised text of Domesday Book itself.
Review of the first publication:
‘Palmer certainly has produced one of the most detailed analyses written about diplomatic negotiations in the medieval period.’
