Kingdoms and Communities in Western Europe 900-1300 by Susan Reynolds This work explores the values and activities of ordinary people in Medieval Western Europe. Rather than focus on hierarchical structures the author instead looks at horizontal bonds of collective association.
This wide-ranging and perceptive book focuses on the collective values and activities of lay society over several centuries, from trade guilds and manor courts to the development of parliaments and the rule of feudal monarchs. It offers a new approach to the history of medieval Europe. The second edition of this important study incorporates a substantial new introduction, which amplifies the arguments of the original edition and takes account of recent research.
