"In feudal and early modern society, the nobility was a force of major importance. Michael Sayer here provides an extensive survey of the most significant sources relating to the status of nobility in Europe from Roman times through the Medieval period and beyond, setting them within the broader historical context. He also examines the many juridical aspects of nobility - titles, arms, heraldry, chivalric orders, and offices - providing a thorough methodological basis for the study of nobility. As a comprehensive survey of nobility in European society over 2000 years, this book will be an invaluable reference tool for scholars and students."-- Provided by publisher.
