During the medieval time people did not have paper, pencil and computers. They had to write with something called Illuminated Manuscript illuminated is a really fancy way of writing with really fancy picture.the Latin word manuscript meaning The word latin manuscript meaning handwritten.
During the medieval times they did not have all the electronic that we have today .everything they did was hand written. You would have to be really rich to do thing like use Manuscript illuminated.
Medieval Times were a time when ladies were not treated equally. They had to do what ever men told them to do. If women refused then they were in serious trouble. From the time women were born they were married off to what ever man their father thought was right . There was no such thing as divorce so even if we tried we were stuck with the person that our father told us was our husband unless we could get the Church to grant an annulment. Why do women have to stay home all day and do what the guy till them? They are smart enough to do their own thing. Why do women have to do all the cooking, cleaning and basically be mens' slaves. Men act as if they can't do any thing on their own.....maybe they can't?!
