520 8  The later twelfth and thirteenth centuries were a pivotal 
       period for the development of European government and 
       governance. During this period a mentality took hold which
       trusted to procedures of accountability as a means of 
       controlling officers' conduct. The mentality was not 
       inherently new, but it became qualitatively more complex 
       and quantitatively more widespread in this period, across 
       European countries, and across different sorts of officer.
       The officers exposed to these methods were not just 
       'state' ones, but also seignorial, ecclasistical, and 
       university-college officers, as well as urban-communal 
       ones. This comparative study surveys these officers and 
       the practices used to regulate them in England. It places 
       them not only within a British context but also a wide 
       European one and explores how administration, law, 
       politics, and norms tried to control the insolence of 
       office
