When a solicitor who is (or imminently will be) on record with the court in a matter, and has dealt with significant pre-action correspondence, they are required to identify themselves and their SRA number in their email signature, right?

Once you get to the pointy bit of contentious correspondence and acts preparatory to litigation (and which you would later rely on, for example a WP Save as to Costs) can no longer hide behind 'ABYZ Bank In House Legal' inbox?

I think more likely than allegory for religion is a greedy pamphleteer publisher making it up to sell copy. Or maybe they did see something truly exotic.

Are not just political, etc. Although the 'Battle of Nuremburg' in the sky, not sure what to make of that but find the "oh its allegorical of politics and religion" is so tedious.

I personally love the margin illustrations of snails jousting against knights (altho academic postulation this is commentary on contemporary political factors and turmoil and the like... sometimes a snail cartoon is just a snail cartoon, sometimes accusations and invective

Basic facility with the plea rolls and Year Books to trawl the folios, pick out the juicier cases and then write them up for a popular audience of mostly barristers and solicitors

Reading far too much between the lines as I'm wont to do, I imagine one of her stewards went to this peasant lads parents and offered a job at Pembrokes Inn, an 'amazing opportunity in London', then it turns out he's in the kitchens turning a spit

Her will seems 'very Joan', in a sad way. I wondered whether the suit of armour she leaves to her Butler grandson was hers, or her husband's. Christine C believes pretty much impossible. I'm not so sure.

Fascinating. You've read Joan's will? I think it's the sole time we can read something of her "voice" not mediated by lawyers engaging in litigation

Yes, see the superficial irony in using an LLM to help with initial drafting (intend to write this out properly, and much longer, if it interests people at all).
There's a civilisational battle going on, need to sound the alarm.
