Description: A collection of essays on the topic of Medieval relationships.
Love, Marriage, Romance & Women... In Medieval & Celtic Culture Family and friends played a major role in arranging marriages, especially if land and other wealth accompanied the union. The parents and siblings in the families had a concern in the marriage, and the lord also wished to keep some accounting of village marrieages. In cases where the marriage was part of the family's economic and social strategy, careful planning by the whole unit was needed, for a good marriage could bring considerable economic benefits. The prospective bride and groom also had an economic stake in a marriage contract, because it would determine not only who their life partner would be, but also how well they could expect to live. To marry for love without land or chattels could assure nothing but a life of penury.
