Description

Originally published in 1984, this groundbreaking study examines how English kings and aristocracy were shaped through childhood and education between the Norman Conquest and the Reformation. Unlike traditional histories focused on adult achievements, this work traces noble boys and girls from birth through their formative years under nurses, tutors and mistresses, following their progression into noble households, monasteries and universities. The author provides the first comprehensive analysis of medieval theories and treatises on aristocratic education, offering unprecedented insight into the lives and upbringing of England's ruling classes during this pivotal period. This Routledge Revivals edition makes this seminal historical work accessible to modern scholars and students interested in medieval social history, pedagogy and the development of England's elite.
