The Routledge Handbook of Medieval Rural Life brings together the
latest research on peasantry in medieval Europe. The aim is to
place peasants - as small-scale agricultural producers - firmly at
the centre of this volume, as people with agency, immense skill and
resilience to shape their environments, cultures and societies.
This volume examines the changes and evolutions within village
societies across the medieval period, over a broad chronology and
across a wide geography. Rural structures, families and hierarchies
are examined alongside tool use and trade, as well as the impact of
external factors such as famine and the Black Death. The
contributions offer insights into multidisciplinary research,
incorporating archaeological as well as landscape studies alongside
traditional historical documentary approaches across widely
differing local and regional contexts across medieval Europe. This
book will be an essential reference for scholars and students of
medieval history, as well those interested in rural, cultural and
social history.
