SC - Daily Living in the 12th C.

[Mary Morman]

this book has some very good material.  a lot of it is based on a book
written by an english student at the university of paris in the 12th

in latin with the words for all ofthe common everyday things that he did.
Like, I get up in the morning and i rise from my bed and i wash my face
from a bowl of water and first i pull on my braes and then i put on my
tunic and over that i wear my...

lots of good material.  don't know if this is still in print, i still have
the copy i used in college.
