Recenzii

'This multi-disciplinary volume brings together a wealth of case studies on the history and archaeology of East Central Europe. With their focus on connectivity, these contributions challenge the notion of a static and bounded medieval Europe, traditionally dominated by studies of the West.'
Aleks Pluskowski, University of Reading, UK
 
'This book presents important research by leading and emerging scholars on an often neglected region of Europe. The essays in The Medieval Networks in East Central Europe cover a wide variety of topics with a particular emphasis on trade relations, both within the region and with Western Europe and Asia, which will appeal to medievalists in general, not just specialists in this region. In fact, the essays in this book demonstrate that the medieval history of this region is an essential part not only of European history but also of Europe’s place in world history.'
Paul Milliman, University of Arizona, USA
