Vinogradoff argues that the Norman-era villain was the direct descendent of the Anglo-Saxon freeman, so the typical Anglo-Saxon settlement was a free community rather than a manor. An impressive work of original scholarship and synthesis, it "shed a wholly new light on the social and legal aspects of the institution of villainage" (William Holdsworth, The Historians of English Law 86). xii, 464 pp.

Autorenporträt
Justly famous as a historian of roman law and as a comparative lawyer, Paul Vinogradoff [1854-1925] also wrote on public international law and English legal history. Roman Law in Medieval Europe (1909) contains his essays on roman law in France, England and Germany and the decay of roman law and the revival of jurisprudence. His Villainage in England (1892) is a classic study of peasantry in the feudal age. His other major works include Outlines in Historical Jurisprudence (1920), a complex description and analytical perspective of the growth of jurisprudence from tribal to modern law, and On the History of International Law and International Organization: Collected Papers of Sir Paul Vinogradoff (2009), which collects his most important contributions to international law and historical jurisprudence.
