Description

An overview of the hospitals in medieval England and their relationships with individuals, groups and other institutions. The hospital emerges as one element in a sophisticated society patronized by the wealthy for the benefit of the poor and infirm, and in which the latter 'patronized' their benefactors through prayers. -- Publisher description
