Political life in the middle ages was influenced heavily by the
bonds people had to one another. Among these, the bonds of kinship,
friendship and lordship were by far the most important. Ritual was
also often used to create and strengthen these bonds, and conduct
and behaviour within social groups was shaped by unwritten rules.
People bound in these ways had a right to expect help and support
from one another. Such bonds were both a fact and a necessity of
life in the middle ages. Over time, however, these bonds and
relationships changed, as did the rules and norms which governed
them. The aim of this book is to document and describe the history
of these crucial bonds, and the ways in which they shaped political
life in Europe in the early and high middle ages.
