Where can I find info on medieval princesses of feudal Europe? Please help!?
First of all the concept of a “medieval princess” that we have been fed by Disney and the like is mostly anachronistic: “Princess is the feminine form of prince (from Latin princeps, meaning principal citizen). Most often, the term has been used for the consort of a prince, or her daughters. “For many centuries, the title “princess” was not regularly used for a monarch’s daughter, who might simply be called “Lady”… most princesses in history were not immediate members of a royal family but women who married into it” So I think you’re question would be better phrases as looking for information on the daily lives of noble or royal ladies during the medieval period.
