[...] With the exception of substantial segments of the population, such as serfs, the new dispensation ushered in or symbolized by the Gregorians witnessed the emancipation at first of the higher service cadres of the town and countryside and then of the humbler classes. [...] The collections of the consuls of Toulouse, those of the counts and of their successors the kings of France are threadbare in the twelfth century, but reasonably thick in the thirteenth.
