Poverty, understood in the usual sense of “destitution,” was a permanent feature of the Middle Ages. From classical antiquity through the social and economic regression of more barbarous times, poverty was thought to be inescapable. Not until the Renaissance and Reformation, when contemporaries began to feel ashamed at the sight of people living in a state considered unworthy of human beings, did anyone dream of eradicating it. . . . Two currents of protest run through the Middle Ages. One flowed from the unfortunate themselves, who rose in rebellion at oddly regular intervals, in the twelfth, fourteenth, and sixteenth centuries, to mention only the most prominent instances. The other . . . attempted to reconcile the abjection of actual misery with poverty construed as a virtue; this ultimately gave rise to various charitable endeavors. But in the absence of the knowledge or power necessary to strike at the root of the evil, no one in either camp could envision anything other than provision of relief to the poor or inversion of the social hierarchy to benefit them.
From page 1 of Poverty in the Middle Ages by Michel Mollat (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1986).

Mollat points out that the poor rebelled against their plight “at oddly regular intervals” throughout the Middle Ages.1 At the same time, other people’s perception of poverty began to shift: the poor came to be seen as innately virtuous and worthy of charity.
