SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Aims to challenge long-standing views of popular medieval revolts. Comparing rebellions in northern and southern Europe over two centuries, this title analyses their causes and forms, their leadership, the role of women, and the suppression or success of these revolts.
