5823X2 Knopf, NY: 1978. 677 pages. Hardcover with dustjacket. Reading copy Dustjacket is worn and torn. Anatomizes the 14th century, revealing to us both the great rhythms of history and the grain and texture of domestic life as it was lived: what childhood was like; what marriage was like; how money, taxes, and war dominated the life of the serf, noble, and clergy alike. Here are guilty passions; loyalties and treacheries; political assassinations; sea battles and sieges; fear of the end of the world; corruption in high places and a yearning for reform; satire and humor; sorcery and demonology; lust and sadism on the stage. Includes an Index. ISBN: 0394400267 $11.00USD
