Building Networks: Exchange of Knowledge, Ideas and Materials in Medieval and Post-Medieval Europe: Themes in Contemporary Archaeology
Editat de Jeroen Bouwmeester, Laura Patrick, Duncan Berrymanen Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 feb 2024
This book aims to explore different aspects of networks in relation to the archaeology of buildings. It is divided into three major themes: the trade in materials, the exchange of knowledge (of techniques and/or materials), and the exchange of style. Within each of these themes, two primary aspects are addressed—notably, who were the actors and how did the network function?
In medieval and post-medieval Europe, the development of buildings, of style and the use of material, cannot be understood from a local, regional or even national perspective. Not only were the borders different than in modern-day Europe, but the contacts of inhabitants also transcended local and regional boundaries. This volume describes the continuous exchange of aesthetic ideals, technological developments and building materials during this period. This volume is a culmination of four years of sessions held at the European Archaeology Association (EAA) conference between 2016-2020 on the topic. It is of interest to archaeologists, architects, and scholars of built heritage.

Notă biografică
Since 2009, Jeroen Bouwmeester has been employed by the Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands as a senior researcher of medieval and early-modern towns. His research focuses on urban archaeology in relation to archaeological heritage management with special attention to predictive modelling and the development of houses and other buildings in relation to urban planning.
Laura Patrick completed her PhD at Queen's University Belfast in 2022. Her research focused on landscape archaeology, using case studies in Ulster to develop a methodology for the visualisation of rural medieval communities in Ireland through GIS and mapping techniques. She is also employed in the heritage and museums sector, promoting the importance of heritage and history.
Dr Duncan Berryman is an archaeologist researching medieval rural buildings. He received his PhD from Queen's University Belfast, this research studied the materials and investment of the buildings of fourteenth-century English manorial curiae. Currently, he is developing this research across the rest of the British Isles. He is also involved in community archaeology in Ulster with the Ulster Archaeological Society.
