商品簡介
Carved images found on English misericords are the basis for examining a number of social issues during the late Middle Ages. This innovative methodology allows the perspective of the common medieval person to be understood in a manner that has not been explored to date. The misericords form a historical record of the experiences of ordinary men and
women that is unrivaled.
