@Samaritan™ they did
just not traditional education
...looking back at my ex-friend, now and for years an NPC, currently just hitting 30s - damn yes, it could be. Which makes it only more sad.
a peasant learning to read and write is immaterial
They learned their trade for life and worked it
but theyd have to know their trade
That isn't what we mean by education
taught from their fathers usually
To make it a holy baby.. give your money to the church
most peasants stillll could read and write in medivial times
unless most humans in modern times cant
and monks and priests did do some amount of educating the peasantry
of course there would be no purpose in peasants knowing how to read
books didnt exist
for most people
Learning to read and write just by existing isn't hard
well no
the printing press wasnt invented till the end of the middle ages
most peasants were bound to the land
I said peasents COULD
read
Potato press
Duh
and services were always conducted in a foreign language
Also papyrus
they couldnt read LATIN, thats why they were iliterate
most languages in the middle ages didnt even have written languages
lol
...
The printing press was just mass reproduction
LoL indeed.
you think the serbian peasants could read?
the russian peasants?
Pre-printing press there were still educational reading materials manufactured in the form of keratin-laminated fabrics mounted on mirrorlike handles
the nordic ones?
polish?
etc.
No but the aristocrats
And servants of lords
Priests fleeced money. simple.
