- Summary:
- "Violence was omnipresent in medieval society and affected all areas of life and the members of all social strata. Surviving sources deal regularly with any issues of violent actions, signs and results of violence, violent people and coping with violence. In such evidence, also the members of the clergy played an important role - as writers about violence and critics of it, but also as perpetrators, victims, and witnesses"--Publisher.
