Medieval society was dominated by its knights and nobles. The
literature created in medieval Europe was primarily a literature of
knightly deeds and the modern imagination has also been captured by
these leaders and warriors. This book explores the nature of the
nobility, focusing on France in the High Middle Ages (11th-13th
centuries). Constance Brittain Bouchard examines their families;
their relationships with peasants, townspeople and clerics; and the
images of them fashioned in medieval literary texts. She
incorporates throughout a consideration of noble women and the
nobility's attitude toward women.
