<div id="yiv271632155">Good evening, all!<br><br>I am looking for information on hospitality/lack of hospitality in the Middle Ages (ca. "Sir Gawain & The Green Knight) from the perspective of the host. That is, what punishments or recourse would there have been if the guest violated the rules of hospitality? I've tried to Florilegium, but I'm needing a bit more information than what's on there. <br>
<br>Any help you all can give would be most appreciated. I am hoping to have this paper turned in by Monday at noon. <br><br>Thank you in advance! <br>Eleanor Cleavely<br>
