Peasants and historians is an examination of historical discussion
of the medieval English peasantry. In this book, the first such
study of its kind, the author traces the development of historical
research aimed at exploring the nature of peasant society. In
separate chapters, the author examines the three main defining
themes which have been applied to the medieval economy in general
including change affecting the medieval peasantry. In subsequent
chapters debates in relation to demography, family structure, women
in rural society, and the nature of village community are each
considered in turn. A final chapter on peasant culture also
suggests areas of development and, potentially at least, future
directions in research and writing. Offering an informed grounding
in the main areas of historical writing in this area, it will be of
interest to researchers as well as to those coming new to the
topic, including undergraduate and postgraduate students. -- .
