Description: A collection of essays exploring medieval and early modern views of community and society.
Review Quotes: "The editors of this volume have done an admirable job--through judicious selection--of uniting their material as well as can be expected from a volumue of this nature, and the fifteen essays themselves are so engaging as to be seminal. All contributions are strong, and concise--rarely over a dozen pages, exclusive of notes--and many offer provocative insights that challenge our notions of historic categorization and stereotypes. ...a delightful book, and one deserving of multiple readings."
