Russian historian and jurist Sir Paul Vinogradoff (1854 1925)
maintained throughout his life a serious scholarly interest in the
history of Great Britain, his adopted country. Elected to a
professorship at Oxford in 1903, to the British Academy in 1905,
and knighted for services to the realm in increasing Anglo-Russian
understanding during the war (1917), Vinogradoff demonstrates in
this book of 1892 both his interest in feudal England and his
historiographic approach, which relied on detailed research using
primary sources to examine individuals, communities, and social
structures. Divided into two essays - 'The Peasantry of the Feudal
Age' and 'The Manor and the Village Community' - the work used
England's extensive feudal records to draw a general character of
the period. Villainage will interest students of English or
European mediaeval history and scholars of mediaeval legal history
and of developments in nineteenth-century historiography.
