Suicide in the Middle Ages: Volume 1: The Violent against Themselves: Violent Against Themselves Vol 1 Book

The phrase "Suicide and the Middle Ages" sounds like a contradiction. Was life too short anyway, and the Church too disapproving, to admit suicide? And how is the historian supposed to find out?
