本文探讨了记忆，尤其是集体记忆对中世纪晚期约克郡教区教堂建筑发展的影响。有人认为，教区教堂虽然是宗教活动的中心，但也是教区内大量社会互动的中心位置，这些建筑的建筑安排传达了关于社区稳定的核心问题的具体助记信息。还讨论了社会中某些个人和团体操纵这种纪念意义的方式。也有人认为，操纵记忆是富人在14世纪后半叶因其实际强制权力的减少而采取的一种策略。集体记忆的概念被视为与中世纪晚期社会作为一种社会调节手段所采用的策略有关。社会监督问题是维持社会凝聚力和遏制族群间紧张关系的一种手段，本文对此进行了一定深入的讨论。在以后的建筑阶段，建筑材料的重新使用和重新定位将被更详细地研究。有人争辩说，在许多情况下，这可以被视为与过去的象征性使用有关。研究了一些中世纪晚期约克郡教堂的建筑意义，其中三座教堂受到了更仔细的审查。形成详细案例研究的三个教区教堂是卡特里克、赫顿警长和温斯利。在每一种情况下，都会考虑历史和考古背景，以便对论文的主要主题进行背景讨论。
This thesis examines the ways in which memory, particularly collective memory, influenced the architectural development of the parish church in later medieval Yorkshire. It is argued that the parish church, while being the focal point for the religious activity, also functioned as the central location for a great deal of social interaction within the parish and the architectural arrangement of these buildings carried specific mnemonic messages regarding issues that were central to communal stability. The manner by which this memorial significance could be manipulated by certain individuals and groups within society is also addressed. It is also argued, that the manipulation of memory was a strategy employed by wealthy in reaction to the reduction of their actual coercive power in the later part of the fourteenth century. The concept of the collective memory is viewed in relation to strategies employed by the late medieval community as a whole as a means of social regulation. The issue of social surveillance, a means by which social cohesion was maintained and inter-communal tension was kept in check, is discussed in some depth. The re-use and repositioning of architectural material in later building phases is looked at in some detail. It is argued that this, in many instances, can be seen to be related to the use of the past in symbolic terms. The architectural significance of a number of late medieval Yorkshire churches is examined, with three churches receiving closer scrutiny. The three parish churches which form the detailed case studies are Catterick, Sheriff Hutton and Wensley. In each case the historical and archaeological background is considered in order to present a contextualised iscussion of the main themes of the thesis.
