The Dark Side of Childhood
in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages
Childhood in the Past Monograph Series
Volume 1: Childhood and Violence in the Western Tradition
Edited by Laurence Brockliss and Heather Montgomery
Volume 2: The Dark Side of Childhood in Late Antiquity
and the Middle Ages
Edited by Katariina Mustakallio and Christian Laes
The monograph series was established to allow scholars from all disciplines a forum
for presenting new, groundbreaking or challenging research into themed aspects of
childhood in the past. The series also offers scholars an opportunity to present the
current state of research, method and theory to an international audience different from
their own. As such, we are pleased to publish this set of papers, many from younger
scholars, resulting from a conference in Finland.
The Society is happy to consider proposals for future monographs. Proposals should
be submitted to the General Editor of the Monograph Series. Details for submission
may be found on the Society’s webpage at www.sscip.org.uk.
