- W249149969 abstract "REVIEWS Thomas N. Bisson, Tormented Voices: Power, Crisis and Humanity in Rural Catalonia, 1140–1200 (Cambridge, MA: Harvard Univer- sity Press 1998) 186 pp. With Tormented Voices, Thomas N. Bisson presents an impressionistic and subjective investigation of rural life during the mid-twelfth century. He sets out to be consciously personal as a reaction to or conversation with the recent historical approaches and critiques of feudal society, creating a micro-history based on sixteen specific documents related to localities in and around the medieval county of Barcelona during the reigns of Ramon Berenguer IV (1131–1162) and Alfons I (1163–1196). This micro-historical approach is particularly effective in light of Bis- son’s lifelong investigation of the institutions of medieval government which have usually been characterized as a stabilizing force in society. Here, he intends to support his recent interpretations of feudal change, put forth in a series of debates on the feudal revolution in Past and Pre- sent, where Bisson argued that a violent transformation in feudal soci- ety occurred during the eleventh and twelfth centuries as traditional lordship became more exploitive and predatory across medieval Europe. 11 In Tormented Voices, Bisson is attempting to regain, by the acts of recounting and remembering, the lives and even individualities of the peasants present in his sources as they experienced this transfor- mation. Bisson’s study is divided into four sections: Memorials, People, Power, and Culture. Within each, the problems of the intertextuality of his sixteen sources are continuously engaged—asking who, what and why these records describe people in certain ways—while attempting to ground the people and events in their physical localities. He demon- strates the complex history of the documents—were they comital in- quiries, self-generated complaints of the peasants, of the scribes?— which he calls memorials. Here, Bisson wishes truly to remember the people involved, recalling their names if nothing else, while attempting to discover more about each individually. Only a small portion of peas- See Thomas N.
