Publisher's Description of Manners and Customs in the Middle Ages
In the Middle Ages, it was important for everyone to dress and act according to their position in society. This intriguing new book describes the different manners and customs that were practiced by kings, knights, ladies, peasants, and religious officials - on the battlefield, in a monastery, at weddings, and at a funerals. Topics include • knights and chivalry • rules that noble youth had to follow when serving their lord and lady • books of manners • the tradition of monks and nuns eating in silence • wedding customs, such as the wedding ring and the bridal veil • the belief that women should be humble and obedient • rituals for pregnancy, birth, and birthdays • harvest celebrations • the tradition of the twelve days of Christmas and the burning of the yule log • superstitions about health and hygiene • burial rituals
The Medieval times or Middle Ages seem to hold great fascination for most people. It seems like such a different lifestyle from the one that we are used to and take for granted. Just the idea of kings, knights, tournaments, lords and ladies, great feasts, and more seems more like movies than real life! Children will love these books that let them immerse themselves in the Medieval Times and learn about daily life, what homes were like, how society worked, what was involved in being a knight or a noble, and much more. These books are packed full of fascinating and useful information, excellent illustrations, artwork, maps, timelines, and even information about what was going on in other cultures during these time periods. ~ Megan
