Custom, Kinship, and Gifts to Saints: The Laudatio Parentum in Western France, 1050-1150 (Studies in Legal History)

Stephen D. White

4.9/5 (20566 ratings)

Description:White combines an intensive study of medieval law with insights from anthropology, religion, and social history to create a picture of French society in the Middle Ages which is impressive in its breadth and illuminating in its detail. By examining the practice whereby gifts of land were approved by the giver's relatives, he suggests novel ways of looking at early medieval law, kinship, land tenure, and gift exchange. White shows that "laudatio parentum" can be properly analyzed only within a combined social, legal, and religious context. Originally published in 1988.
