Did medieval women have the power to choose? This is a question
at the heart of this book which explores three court cases from
Yorkshire in the decades after the Black Death. Alice de Rouclif
was a child heiress made to marry the illegitimate son of the local
abbot and then abducted by her feudal superior. Agnes Grantham was
a successful businesswoman ambushed and assaulted in a forest
whilst on her way to dine with the Master of St Leonard's Hospital.
Alice Brathwell was a respectable widow who attracted the
attentions of a supposedly aristocratic conman. These are their
stories.
