Women in the Medieval English Countryside: Gender and Household in Brigstock before the Plague

by JudithM.Bennett (Author)

This study of the rights of women in medieval England uses as its focal point the daily activities of an early 14th-century manor house. The author argues that married women were more restricted than their widowed or single counterparts because of their status as dependents of their husbands.
