Part of the "Medieval World" series, this text examines the role of English noblewomen in the later Middle Ages, covering such areas as marriage, the household, lifestyle and travel, estates and revenue, lordship and patronage and religious practices.
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.
