Professor
Anthony Tuck
Emeritus
Professor of History, University of Bristol
The
English Language in Late Medieval Britain
Professor Anthony Tuck taught medieval history at the Universities of Lancaster, Durham
and Bristol . His main interests are in 14th and 15th century English
history, and the economy and society of the northern English counties and the
Anglo-Scottish border. He has published on all these subjects, and he
became interested in the changes in the languages used in the documents he
consulted.
Now retired, he lives in Newport (Essex) and is
a member of a group preparing a parish history of Newport for the Victoria
County History. It will be one of the VCH's series of
"stand-alone" parish histories, and publication is expected at the
end of 2014.
