Living in the Middle Ages (Living in the Ancient World)

Living in the Middle Ages covers the period from 800 CE to 1500 CE, focusing on two epochs set in 1100 CE and 1450 CE. It examines the day-to-day lives of medieval Europeans, from barons and bishops to serfs. The feudal system is explained, as well as the various jobs and relationships of people from different classes. A description of the basic structure of a typical castle is provided. The growth of the town and the rise of the middle class are also discussed.  With timelines, maps, detailed photography, and full-colour illustrations, Living in the Middle Ages is an engaging reference for teenagers and young adults that brings the ancient world to life.

Pirates? The Politics of Plunder 1550 - 1650Pirates? The Politics of Plunder 1550 - 1650

This inter-disciplinary study is the first to consider how representations of pirates addressed both national political issues and the agenda of particular interest groups. Looking at a variety of well-known and neglected figures and texts, as well as canonical ones, it shows how attitudes to piracy and privateering were debated and contested between 1550 and 1650. This collection of broad-ranging essays by international figures offers a new perspective on an early modern cultural phenomenon, and satisfies the need for a scholarly, in-depth analysis of this important topic in Renaissance history.

Recreation in the Renaissance - Attitudes towards Leisure and Pastime in European Culture 1350 - 1700Recreation in the Renaissance - Attitudes towards Leisure and Pastime in European Culture 1350 - 1700

In Renaissance Europe, when 'leisure classes' used social gathering to define civility and the commercialization of leisure was beginning, the human need for recreation became a cultural topos. This book explores the vocabulary of play and games; the spectrum of leisure activities, often gender-specific or appropriate to particular social groups; the medical discourse on the preservation of health, where amusements were assessed as physical exercise; the moral approach to play; legal treatises on gambling; and the visual representation of leisure.
