A first-hand view of life in medieval France, as seen through the
eyes of an elderly man instructing his young wife. The Goodman of
Paris (Le Menagier de Paris) wrote this book for the instruction of
his young wife around 1393. He was a wealthy and learned man, a
member of that enlightened haute bourgeoisie upon which the French
monarchy was coming to lean with increasing confidence. When he
wrote his Treatise he was at least sixty but had recently married a
young wife some forty years his junior. It fell to her to make his
declining years comfortable,but it was his task to make it easy for
her to do so. The first part deals with her religious and moral
duties: as well as giving a unique picture of the medieval view of
wifely behaviour it is illustrated by a series of storiesdrawn from
the Goodman's extensive reading and personal experience. In the
second part he turns from theory to practice and from soul to body,
compiling the most exhaustive treatise on household management
which has come downto us from the middle ages. Gardening, hiring of
servants, the purchase and preparation of food are all covered,
culminating in a detailed and elaborate cookery book. Sadly the
author died before he could complete the third section on hawking,
games and riddles. This unique glimpse of medieval domestic life
presents a worldly, dignified and compelling picture in the words
of a man of sensibility and substance. The distinguished historian
EILEEN POWER was Professor of Economic History at the University of
Cambridge.
