What reading level is The English Village Community Examined in Its Relations to the Manorial And Trib book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such was the tenure of the family land, and these were the services of the free tribesmen.
There is no trace here of villenage, or of the servile week-work of the Saxon serf. The tribesmen had no manorial lord over them but their chief, and he was their natural and elected tribal head. So, when Wales was finally conquered, the tunc was paid to the Prince of Wales, and no mesne lord was inter- posed between the tribesman and the Prince.
Thus the freedom of the free tribesman was guarded at every... point.
The aittts or taeogs.
Their tyddynn and ploughs.
Turning now to the other class, the aillts or taeogs — who in the Latin translations of the laws are called villani — the key to their position was their non-possession of tribal blood, and therefore of the rights of kindred. They were not free-born Welsh- men ; though, on the other hand, by no means to be confounded with caeths, or slaves. They must be sworn men of some chieftain or lord, on whose land they were placed, and at whose will and pleasure they were deemed to remain.
