Recenzii
"Wiith this book, the authors fill the urban spaces of early modern cities with their inhabitants, their social relations, and their cultural practices [...] the authors convincingly show that not all order came from the top down: the emphasis on the agency of the individuals in constructing and reacting to this order is one of the most valuable qualities of this book." Eleonora Canepari, Canadian Journal of History / Annales canadiennes d'histoire vol. 45 (Winter) 2010, pp. 605-607.
"Each of these chapters contributes something to our knowledge of streets and street life in early modern Europe. We are still a long way from an understanding of the role of streets in early modern cities that will combine the urbanist and social perspectives into a unified whole. Perhaps some future historian will undertake that task. When he or she does, this collection of essays--and other studies which essays like these are likely to inspire--will be among the indispensable building blocks of that future work."
