Video Description
Investigatee into the lives of the serf and the merchant in medieval times, revealing the vast gulf between them. We explore the ingenuity of medieval peasants, from the three-field system and the horse collar to the harsh realities of the Great Famine and the tragic Peasants’ Revolt. Then, step inside the opulent halls of the London Guilds, where an elite few monopolized power and wealth. Discover how this network of trade controlled the city, how a wealthy guild member could steal a fortune and walk free due to royal connections, and why a family of successful peasants could disappear completely after a bad harvest.
