Time, Work, and Culture in the Middle Ages by Jacques Le Goff

Jacques Le Goff is a prominent figure in the tradition of French medieval scholarship, profoundly influenced by the Annales school, notably, Bloch, Febvre, and Braudel, and by the ethnographers and anthropologists Mauss, Dumézil, and Lévi-Strauss. In building his argument for "another Middle Ages" (un autre moyen âge), Le Goff documents the emergence of the collective mentalité from many sources with scholarship both imaginative and exact.

acques Le Goff is the director of the École des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris, as well as the codirector of the Annales - Economics, Societies, Civilisations. The Birth of Purgatory and Time, Labor, and Culture are two of his books.
