This is a study of rural social structure in the county of Essex between 1350 and 1500. It seeks to understand how, in the population collapse after the Black Death (1348-1349), a particular economic environment affected ordinary people's lives in the areas of migration, marriage, and employment, and also contributed to patterns of religious nonconformity, agrarian riots and unrest, and even rural housing.L. R. Poos is the author of 'A Rural Society after the Black Death: Essex 1350-1525 (Cambridge Studies in Population, Economy and Society in Past Time)', published 1991 under ISBN 9780521382601 and ISBN 0521382602.
