"Marc Bloch said that his goal in writing Feudal Society was to go beyond the technical study a medievalist would typically write and 'dismantle a social structure.' In this outstanding and monumental work, which has introduced generations of readers to the feudal period, Bloch treats feudalism as living, breathing force in Western Europe from the ninth to the thirteenth century. At its heart lies a magisterial account of relations of lord and vassal, and the origins of the nature of the fief, brought to life through compelling accounts of the nobility, knighthood and chivalry, family relations, political and legal institutions, and the church. For Bloch history was a process of constant movement and evolution and he describes the slow process by which feudal societies turned into what would eventually become nation states. A tour de force of historical writing, Feudal Society is essential reading for anyone interested in both Western Europe's past and present. Published for the first time in English in one volume, this Routledge Classics edition includes a new foreword by Geoffrey Koziol"-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

He shows that the simple post-Norman conquest English system was wonderfully simple when compared with the same idea anywhere else in Europe. If you want to study the matter in more detail there's an extensive bibliography.
After reading this book, you will never look at simple Medieval based fantasy social structure again without a wry smile.
This book was published in French in 1939, and translated into English in 1961. ( )
