Minor: Animal cruelty, Animal death, Child abuse, Death, Sexism, Sexual violence, Violence, Murder, Pregnancy, War, and Pandemic/Epidemic

None of the above are particularly graphic or problematic but the text does at various points touch on them as part of people's lives in the fourteenth century.
