This book explores social cohesion in rural settlements in western
Europe from 700-1050, asking to what extent settlements, or
districts, constituted units of social organisation. It focuses on
the interactions, interconnections and networks of people who lived
side by side - neighbours. Drawing evidence from most of the
current western European countries, the book plots and interrogates
the very different practices of this wide range of regions in a
systematically comparative framework. It considers the variety of
local responses to the supra-local agents of landlords and rulers
and the impact, such as it was, of those agents on the small-scale
residential group. It also assesses the impact on local societies
of the values, instructions and demands of the wider literate world
of Christianity, as delivered by local priests. -- .
