Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intriguing history of Dunmow, Essex, England, and the fascinating tradition of its flitch of bacon. The flitch was a prize awarded to couples who could prove they had lived together in perfect harmony for a year and a day. Beginning in the 14th century, the author traces the origins of this unique prize, exploring its social and cultural significance. The book also examines the wider context of marriage and relationships, providing insights into the challenges and rewards of marital life during the medieval and early modern periods. The author draws on a wealth of historical sources, including court records, legal documents, and literary texts, to reconstruct the experiences of married couples who sought to claim the flitch. By analyzing the conditions of the award and the reasons why some couples succeeded while others failed, the author sheds light on the changing nature of marriage and the evolving expectations of society. Ultimately, this book offers a compelling look at a forgotten tradition that reveals much about the history of marriage and the enduring human desire for love and companionship.
