William the Conquerors victory in 1066 was the beginning of a period of major transformation for medieval English aristocrats. In this groundbreaking book David Crouch examines for the first time the fate of the English aristocracy between the reigns of the Conqueror & Edward I. Offering an original explanation of medieval society
- one that no longer employs traditional feudal or bastard feudal models
- Crouch argues that society remade itself around the emerging principle of nobility in the generations on either side of 1200 marking the beginning of the ancient regime. The book describes the transformation in aristocrats expectations conduct piety & status; in expressions of social domination; & in the relationship with the monarchy. Synchronizing English social history with non-English scholarship Crouch places Englands experience of change within a broader European transformation & highlights Englands important role in the process. With his accustomed skill Crouch redefines a fascinating era & the noble class that emerged from it.
