Comparing rebellions in northern and southern Europe over two centuries, Cohn analyzes their causes and forms, their leadership, the role of women, and the suppression or success of these revolts. The book offers a new interpretation of the Black Death and the increase of and change in popular revolt from the mid-1350s to the early 15th century.
