Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the development of rural classes in England and the origins of the manorial arrangement. Unlike other historians who either credit the Anglo-Saxons or Romans for establishing the manor system, the author explores a middle path, suggesting instead that Celtic tribal customs gave way to the feudal system after the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons, aided by the administrative abuses of the Lower Roman Empire. Furthermore, the author claims that the manorial system was not imposed upon the Anglo-Saxons by the Normans, as commonly believed. Rather, the conditions of the time created the need for a landed aristocracy and labor class, which gradually led to the manorial system already in practice. This book presents an in-depth look into English history to demonstrate how economic necessity drove social change and the power dynamics of rural communities.
