(In Charity and Welfare, Dr. James Brodman surveys the net...)
In Charity and Welfare, Dr. James Brodman surveys the networks of hospitals and charitable institutions in medieval Catalonia that gave food to the hungry, dowries to indigent women, shelter to the homeless, and palliative care to the ill. This book places Catalonia's experience in a broader European context and gracefully synthesizes a huge amount of scholarship that is scattered in local and specialist sources. It demonstrates how, just as contemporary society struggles with the issues of welfare reform, managed health care, and assistance to the elderly, so did the people of the Middle Ages deal with these questions of who to help and what criteria to use to make these decisions.

Charity and Religion in Medieval Europe is the first comprehensive study of the ideas that underlie medieval generosity and of the institutions created to serve the poor. It traces the roots of this liberality to the patristic era and demonstrates how the ideas of twelfth-century reformers, especially Pope Innocent III, broadened and deepened society's commitment to the downtrodden.
