Feudalism and the Manor

The period of the Middle Ages begins in roughly 500 CE/AD and lasts up to about Why do historians use this periodization? What is historical periodization?

 Vast and sprawling, the unified empire governed from Rome and occupied by a mighty military created the “known world”  Rome falls in the late 400s CE/AD to eastern invaders.

 The unity of Europe is lost.  Politics and government become local, centered upon the feudal estate or principality.

 Three Broad Groups  Those Who Pray  Monks living in monasteries across Europe  Those Who Work  Those Who Fight  Lords and their vassals, including knights

 Of the 3 large groupings of people, the substantial majority of Europeans were “those that worked”  Feudal nobility or elites were few in number, but held great power.  Religious leaders were few in number, yet powerful – Where are they on this hierarchy?

 Feudal Europe existed at two broad levels.  1. The Lord/Vassal relationship. Aristocracy  2. The Feudal noble and those that lived on his estate or feud – the peasants, most of whom were serfs.

 Feudalism defined:  A social and political system based upon bonds of loyalty and grants of a fief or feud by a mighty lord to a lesser lord, his vassal.  In return, the vassals promise to fight and protect the greater lord.  The Aristocratic Level

 Serfdom defined – A non-free person residing on the lord’s land, who while retaining certain rights of personage, was required to perform labor service on the lord’s land.  A slave – the human property of the lord.  Serfdom was a hereditary condition and serfs had to pay their lord a variety of taxes.

 Manor House – Where the lord or his representative lived.  Fields were worked communally, with two fields planted yearly.  Third field would lay fallow.

 Manorialism describes the services and obligations of the peasant classes.  Economic power of those that fought were linked to landed estates, so feudalism and manorialism were linked.

 “By the year 800, perhaps 60 % of the population of western Europe – completely free a century before – had been reduced to serfdom.” McKay, A History of Western Society, p. 262  Why would peasants surrender themselves to the lord’s jurisdiction?  For protection! From whom?

 Why are the Middle Ages so called?  What are some synonyms for the Middle Ages?  What is the periodization for the Middle Ages?  Describe the social structure of the Middle Ages.  Describe the link between feudalism and manorialism?

 Renaissance or rebirth, seeks to (re)capture the emphasis and brilliance of learning and literature that existed back during….?  Is it a true break from the Middle Ages or an evolution?
