Hi All,
I know it is a tad early, but here is a book that might be of interest regarding contracts and service in the 15th C.

----

Concepts and Patterns of Service in the Later Middle Ages

Edited by ANNE CURRY and ELIZABETH MATTHEW

quote:

The notion of service was ingrained in medieval culture, prominent throughout the language and life of the time.
These studies of the nature and importance of service include contracts between domestic servants and employers, labour legislation, career opportunities for graduates, the public service ethos embodied by the king's household retinue, public service in France, and bastard feudalism in Scotland.

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time, but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at a tempting moment.
