English Noblewomen in the Later Middle Ages Hardback
by Jennifer Ward
Part of the The Medieval World series
Hardback
Description
This vivid and pioneering study illuminates the different roles played in late medieval society by noblewomen - the most substantial group of women to survive as individuals in medieval documents.
They emerge (despite limited political opportunities) as figures of consequence themselves in a landowning society through estate management in their husbands' frequent absences, and through hospitality, patronage and affinity.
