The Becket Lecture looks to be a real treat because it will be great to hear from an expert on medieval law courts and so gain an appreciation of how men, such as Thomas Becket and his clerks, understood the legal processes. Dr Nick Karn\u2019s studies of the royal and church courts reveal some very interesting power structures, especially during Becket\u2019s time when disputes between king and archbishop affected relations not only in England but across medieval Christendom.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/445\/2014\/11\/becket-illo_2184803b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-66 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/445\/2014\/11\/becket-illo_2184803b.jpg\" alt=\"becket-illo_2184803b\" width=\"620\" height=\"388\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/445\/2014\/11\/becket-illo_2184803b.jpg 620w, https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/445\/2014\/11\/becket-illo_2184803b-300x188.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">copyright: The Telegraph<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m looking forward to a feast of lectures next week because as well as the Ninth Annual Thomas Becket Lecture on Wednesday 26 November at 6pm, there will be Martin [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6665,"featured_media":66,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[818],"tags":[9,13,17,53,57,41,61],"class_list":["post-64","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events","tag-canterbury","tag-first-world-war","tag-martin-watts","tag-medieval-courts","tag-nick-karn","tag-talk","tag-thomas-becket"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"authorName":"Sheila Sweetinburgh","featuredImage":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/445\/2014\/11\/becket-illo_2184803b.jpg","postExcerpt":"I\u2019m looking forward to a feast of lectures next week because as well as the Ninth Annual Thomas Becket Lecture on Wednesday 26 November at 6pm, there will be Martin [&hellip;]","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6665"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":934,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64\/revisions\/934"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/66"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
