Series: Royal Historical Society Studies in History New Series (Book 3). Hardcover: 312 pages. Graeme Small has shed light on the darkest corners of an important court chronicler's public and private affairs. Everything from Chastelain's family connections, to his ascent in ducal service is gracefully covered in a tightly argued piece of work, heavily (and usefully) footnoted, with archival and printed references aplenty for the keen Chastelain scholar.

This is the first historical study of Chastelain in over half a century. Published December 7th 1997 by Royal Historical Society (first published November 6th 1997).

This book sketches the contours of the noble population in the county of Zeeland between 1400 and 1550, thereby answering the central question of how the political and socio-economic position of the noblemen in society actually evolved in a period characterised by the processes of state formation, urbanisation and commercialisation. The question is approached from two perspectives: that of the nobility as a group and that of the individual nobleman and his family.
