Wow, this is an absolutely fascinating article and does what all good history should do - complicated simplistic narratives to reveal a more holistic understanding of the past. Kudos @brian-hanley.bsky.social!

"While I do think the book has something to contribute to the ongoing/revived conversations about societal change at the beginning of the second millennium, it also [...] provides an entirely new paradigm to think about elites within medieval societies [...]." #MedievalSky
