Produktbeschreibung
During the High Middle Ages, more than nine out of ten Europeans lived in peasant communities. They not only had to grow or raise all of their own food, but were also required to cultivate the fields of the lord who provided them with land and protection. In Life in a Medieval Village, Frances and Joseph Gies draw on archeological discoveries and contemporary documents to explore this long-lost world.

The Gieses focus on Elton, England, which was in many ways typical of European villages of the time. Readers will learn how medieval laborers worked and played, how they administered town affairs, and what roles the local lord and the Christian Church played in their lives. Life in a Medieval Village also explores the origins of this unique style of community, as well as its eventual demise. This lively, detailed portrait shows how life was really lived by most Europeans seven hundred years ago.

Frances and Joseph Gies have been writing books about medieval history for more than thirty years. Together and separately, they are the authors of more than twenty books, including Life in a Medieval City, Life in a Medieval Castle, Life in a Medieval Village, The Knight in History, and Cathedral, Forge, and Waterwheel. They live near Ann Arbor, Michigan.
