- Summary:
- In this invigorating collection of essays by leading medieval historians, the issue of laity -- primarily the ideas and attitudes of lay people -- are examined, as expressed in legal cases, charters, chronicles, and collective activities. The contributors focus on narratives from the Middle Ages, during a period of progress from irrational to rational thought. The essays range chronologically and geographically from the 7th to the 16th century, and from West Britain to Papal and urban Italy.
