From School Library JournalGrade 610Recent scholarly research has added greatly to what is known about the lives of women during the medieval period, and many libraries will find that this title fills a gap in their collections. Accessible chapters cover women as peasants, skilled workers, artists, in professions, in religion, and with positions of power. In each category, education, family, economics, and lifestyle are discussed, and anecdotal sidebars add excerpts from primary sources. Generous averagequality, blackandwhite period reproductions illustrate the book; only two maps are included. However, students conducting indepth research will need to consult additional sources. The strength of the book is that the formatwith almost one illustration per page, large print, and accessible languageshould hold their interest, thus exposing readers to a broader range of detail than they might pursue in drier, more academic presentations.Tina Cohen, Deerfield Academy, MACopyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.Product DescriptionMedieval women filled many roles. They worked as peasants, citydwellers with a trade or business, healers, advocates, estate administrators, queens, religious women, writers and artists.Review'This series will enhance the student's knowledge of women's roles throughout history and fulfill a curricular need. Each book discusses the history, cultural history, belief system, and legacy women left on their societies. Students will find material fascinating and easy to comprehend. Captioned photographs and gray information sections throughout the book give the reader insight into specific aspects not covered in the text. The annotated bibliography and notes section will assist those needing further indepth resources. Recommended.'
