What reading level is The Parish Gilds of Mediæval England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the gild treasury was able to bear it alms might be given to a member falUng into difficulties, but such help was not to be given to anyone who had not been a member for seven years at least or who had been remiss either in the pay- ment of his quarterages or in fuffiUing his duty of attendance on all occasions required by the rule. Moreover, the strictest investigation was made before help was granted. The petitioner first of aU was to make known his need to the wardens, and was then to be ...ordered to be present at the SOME LATER GILDS 83 next quarterly meeting. Meanwhile the wardens were to make careful inquiry into the petitioner's story. Report was to be made to the meeting and the petitioner then summoned to appear, in order that the whole company might see and know him and afterwards testify if they had anything against his former manner of life.
The usual provisions were made for expelling from the fraternity anyone of evil life or remiss in paying subscrip- tions, and also for the reconciliation of quarrels and dis- sensions among the brethren, without resort to the law- courts; but there is the very unusual and possibly unique provision that if the reconciliation were found impossible and recourse to law unavoidable, then the wardens and brethren who had been appointed to reconcile the contending parties were to go to court and bear witness against the person they considered to be in the wrong.
