Product Description

In this comparative study of the role of English and French towns in feudal society in the middle ages Professor Hilton provides a new perspective on medieval society and argues that medieval towns were not, as is often thought, harbingers of capitalism. He emphasises how urban societies fitted into, rather than challenged, feudalism.
