The Three Orders
Question
Wired Faculty App

Imagine and describe a day in the life a crafts- man in a medieval French town.

Answer

Peasant families had to set aside certain days of the week, usually three but often more, when they would go to the lord’s estate and work there. The output from such labour, called labour - rent would go directly to the lord.

In addition, they could be required to do other unpaid labour services, like digging ditches, gathering firewood, building fences and reparing roads and buildings. Besides helping in the fields, women and children had to do other tasks.

They spun thread, wove cloth, made candles and pressed grapes to prepare wine for the lord’s use.
