Free Shipping Condition: Brand New Location: Ferndale, United States Medieval People by Eileen Power. DESCRIPTION: Hardback with Dust Jacket: 210 pages. Publisher: HarperCollins(new reprint of 1963 copyright) In this classic ... moreof social history. Noted medieval scholar Eileen Power recreates the lives of six ordinary people who lived during the Middle Ages. Drawing upon account books, diaries, letters, records, wills, and other authentic historical documents, she brings to vivid life Bodo, a Frankish peasant in the time of Charlemagne; Marco Polo, the well-known Venetian traveler of the thirteenth century; Madame Eglentyne, Chaucer’s prioress in real life; a Parisian housewife of the fourteenth century; Thomas Betson, a fifteenth century English merchant; and Thomas Paycocke of Coggeshall, an Essex clothier in the days of Henry VII. Largely untouched by fame(with the exception of Marco Polo) The lives and activities of these common people offer a unique glimpse of various aspects of the medieval world: peasant life, monastic life, the wool trade, Venetian trade with the East, domestic life in a middle-class home, and more. Enlivened with charming illustrations and touches of humor, this scholarly yet highly readable work(according to the New York Times) possesses a color, a dramatic touch that humanizes the dry bones of charters and documents” CONDITION: Unblemished except that dustjacket and covers evidence mild edge and corner shelfwear. And dustjacket also evidences mild rubbing(dustjacket is high-gloss, photo-finish and so shows rub marks very easily, even merely from being shelved between other books) ALSO the top and fore-edge surfaces of the pages show a mild-degree of(tan-colored) age freckling(visible only when book is closed, not to individual pages, only to the mass of closed page edges) Inside the book, pages are pristine; clean, crisp, unmarked, unmutilated, tightly bound, unambiguously unread. Excepting for the mild case of age-spotting to the edges of the closed pages, the overall condition is otherwise onsistent with new stock from an open-shelf bookstore

Free Shipping Condition: Brand New Location: Lummi Island, United States Chaucer and the Late Medieval World by Lillian M. Bisson. DESCRIPTION: Softcover: 294 pages. Publisher: St. Martin’s Press; 1998) Divided between the ... moreouter world of affairs and the inner world of poetic insight. Chaucer sought to make sense of his changing, conflicting world. In“Chaucer and the Late Medieval World” Lillian M. Bisson examines the societal issues that the poet explored in his work. Bisson provides lively interpretations of Chaucer's texts, especially“The Canterbury Tales” in the context of the paradigmatic shifts taking place around him, and offers a broad historical overview. Often going back to the Early Christian period, Bisson helps the reader grasp the significance of those shifts. She focuses on three major areas of medieval life; religion, class/commerce, and gender; all of which were experiencing considerable change in the fourteenth century. The book builds a bridge between an unmediated encounter with Chaucer’s texts and the more specialized discussions found in most contemporary criticism. And provides a detailed analysis of Christian culture. Placing each topic in a broad cultural context, Chaucer and the Late Medieval World” helps the reader to better understand the questions that teased Chaucer’s imagination into poetry and to enter into the cultural conversation with which he engaged his audience. CONDITION: New. Never read. PLEASE SEE IMAGES BELOW FOR SAMPLE PAGES FROM INSIDE OF BOOK. PLEASE SEE PUBLISHER. PROFESSIONAL, AND READER REVIEWS BELOW. PUBLISHER REVIEW: REVIEW: Bisson places Chaucer's work in the context of some of the major cultural and social currents of his day. A time when the underpinnings of medieval society were undergoing substantive challenges and revision. Students will find this book particularly useful as a historical companion to The Canterbury Tales. It seeks to bring to non-specialists some of the excitement that the new interest in social history and popular culture is generating among scholars, and it attempts to serve the growing interest in inte

Publisher: University of Pennsylvania ... morePress; reprint of 1964. 1998) Although social sciences such as anthropology are often thought to have been organized as academic specialties in the nineteenth century. The ideas upon which these disciplines were founded actually developed centuries earlier. In fact, the foundational concepts can be traced at least as far back as the sixteenth century, when contact with unfamiliar peoples in the New World led Europeans to create ways of describing and understanding social similarities and differences among humans. Early Anthropology in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries examines the history of some of the ideas adopted to help understand the origin of culture. The diversity of traits, the significance of similarities, the sequence of high civilizations, the course of cultural change, and the theory of social evolution. It is a book that not only illuminates the thinking of a by-gone age but also sheds light on the sources of attitudes still prevalent today. CONDITION: New. Never read.
