Womankind In Western Europe From The Earliest Times To The Seventh Century PDF Download

Excerpt from Womankind in Western Europe: From the Earliest Times to the Seventeenth Century The period of transition from the old society to the new, from mediaeval society to that of modern times, was long and full of troubles, and agitation, and confusion. If we enter into it minutely, the picture revealed to us is by no means so attractive as that of the ages which preceded, and I have therefore treated it more as a sketch; or rather, I may perhaps say, that I have thrown into the picture of feudalism itself as much of it as still remained feudal. Anything like a history of Womankind during' the sixteenth century would itself fill a large volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
