Mediaeval Socialism is a book written by Bede Jarrett and published in 1914. The book explores the concept of socialism in the Middle Ages, specifically in the 13th century. Jarrett argues that there were elements of socialism in the economic and social systems of the Middle Ages, and that these elements were based on Christian principles of charity and community.The book is divided into two parts. The first part examines the economic and social systems of the Middle Ages and how they were influenced by Christian principles. Jarrett argues that the feudal system, while often criticized for its inequalities, was actually based on a sense of community and mutual obligation. He also discusses the role of guilds and their importance in promoting economic stability and social welfare.The second part of the book explores the ideas of medieval thinkers such as St. Thomas Aquinas and their views on social justice and the common good. Jarrett argues that these ideas were central to the development of medieval socialism and that they have relevance for contemporary debates about economic and social justice.Overall, Mediaeval Socialism provides a unique perspective on the history of socialism and the role of Christianity in shaping economic and social systems. It is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the history of political and economic thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
