Description:
From the study of such practical handbooks, social and political historians of the Middle Ages may gain a more nuanced view of the legal relations of lords and vassals in Catalonia, one of the most "feudalized" areas of early medieval Europe. Kagay makes this material accessible with an English translation and places the work and its author in the context of other thirteenth-century legal handbooks as well as the "feudalism debate" of the twentieth century.
