Medieval Readings:
Did Margery Paston’s story have a happy ending?
Margery Paston’s story links to the activity on emotions in Section 2 and to the overall Section 2 theme of similarities and differences between the Middle Ages and now.
I’ve also used this story to underline the obvious-seeming point that people did not know what lay ahead of them, a point that is maybe less obvious to students because, with the benefit of hindsight, we do know what happened next.
