The Middle Ages were for many years generally viewed as a period
when faith and order supported a rigid society. By painstaking
archival research, historians such as Joseph R. Strayer and the
contributors to this volume have gradually replaced this view with
a regard for the period as a time of great intellectual diversity.
These essays, divided into five groups, probe the themes of order
and innovation as they appear in medieval government; finance;
trade and urban life; social arrangements; and aspects of the
personality and goals of the individual. The contributors focus on
England, France, and the Mediterranean from about the eleventh to
about the sixteenth century. Contributors: Frederic Kreisler,
Charles Radding, Giles Constable, William Bowsky, John Freed,
Phillippe Wolff, Thomas Bisson, Richard Kaeuper, John Benton,
Archibald Lewis, William Jordan, Rhiman Rotz, Robert Baker, Robert
Lopez, Teofilo Ruiz, Raphael DeSoignie, Bennett Hill, Frederic
Cheyette, Jan Rogozinski, Bruce McNab, Lester Little, Robert
Lerner, Elizabeth Brown, Charles Wood, and Gaines Post. Originally
published in 1976. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
