Master-Servant Childhood cover

An interdisciplinary synthesis that offers a new understanding of childhood in the Middle Ages as a form of master-servant relation embedded in an ancient sense of time as a correspondence between earthly change and eternal order.

"Ryan's Master-Servant Childhood promises to stimulate further investigation into the historiography and analysis of medieval childhood and to initiate broader discussion among historians and cultural critics alike." - Daniel T. Kline, Associate Professor at the University of Alaska Anchorage, USA
