The Growth of the Medieval City: From Late Antiquity to the Early Fourteenth Century: A History of Urban Society in Europe

Autor David M Nicholas
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 aug 2016
The first part of David Nicholas's massive two-volume study of the medieval city, this book is a major achievement in its own right. (It is also fully self-sufficient, though many readers will want to use it with its equally impressive sequel which is being published simultaneously.) In it, Professor Nicholas traces the slow regeneration of urban life in the early medieval period, showing where and how an urban tradition had survived from late antiquity, and when and why new urban communities began to form where there was no such continuity. He charts the different types and functions of the medieval city, its interdependence with the surrounding countryside, and its often fraught relations with secular authority. The book ends with the critical changes of the late thirteenth century that established an urban network that was strong enough to survive the plagues, famines and wars of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.

Descriere

The first part of David Nicholas's two-volume study of the medieval city, traces the slow regeneration of urban life in the early medieval period. He shows where and how an urban tradition had survived from late antiquity, and when and why new urban communities began to form where there was no such continuity. He then charts the different types and functions of the medieval city, its interdependence with the surrounding countryside, and its often difficult relations with secular authority. The book concludes with the critical changes of the late thirteenth century in the urban network.
