In your initial post, examine this characterization (as described above) by discussing medieval society and how it was structured. What functions did each group perform? To what extent was social mobility possible in this society? How would you compare medieval society with modern American society in terms of this characterization? Include at least one additional resource other than the textbook in your post. Your post should be about 250 words.
