Beschreibung
Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2024 in the subject History of Europe - Middle Ages, Early Modern Age, , language: English, abstract: This study aims to do its part to rescue the peasant women from oblivion and neglect, thus becoming the forgotten protagonists for much of medieval historiography. We must not forget that these women were by far the largest percentage of the female population in medieval times. This fact should not be surprising if one considers that in this period the rural world was predominant, and wealth and social status were closely linked to agricultural production to a greater or lesser extent. On the other hand, another point of interest of this monograph is to conduct a comparative study which sheds some light on the differences and similarities in the situation of peasant women in two seigneurial systems that at first glance seem unrelated. Still, once they are analysed carefully, and, despite their geographical distance, both can be seen as a common influence in the daily lives of rural women when it comes to their private and public spheres.
