Le Père Gaschon est l’enfant de l’histoire.

Père Gaschon is a child of history.

Charlemagne introduced what was to become feudalism under the dual authority of his crown and the Church. Land was unified in its ownership and shared between the nobility and the church at local and regional levels. The land was worked and tilled by peasants, most of whom were serfs. They were tied to the land and could not travel or move without a permit. But the Benedictines (or black monks) were known as the engineers of feudalism because they controlled most of the libraries inherited from the Roman Empire, and as such were able to unify the legal basis of this land ownership and the status of the population into three orders: the nobility, whose role was to maintain peace and order, and protect the various territories; the secular or monastic clergy, who ensured the spiritual and ritual well-being of society; the rest of society divided between serfs working the land and vilains doing other tasks such as all the trades necessary for the expansion of this society (trade and various services).

He never broke this link with the ten centuries since Charlemagne leading to a future beyond the French Revolution.
