- Summary:
- Provides an up-to-date survey of the decline of serfdom in England, applying a new methodology for establishing both its chronology and causes to thousands of court rolls from 38 manors located across the south Midlands and East Anglia. This study challenges many of the traditional interpretations of the economy and society of late-medieval England, and of the nature of serfdom itself.
