Presents a wealth of original research findings on how medieval
ports actually worked, providing new insights on shipping, trade,
port society and culture, and systems of regional and international
integration. This book responds to the increasing interest of
maritime historians in the study of ports. These enclaves offer
significant insights into a variety of subjects, including ships
and shipping; trade, commodities, and consumption patterns; the
economy, society and culture of port workers and port communities;
and systems of regional and international integration. Based on
extensive research in a wide range of European archives, the book
provides much detailon the nature of ports in the medieval period,
especially on the crucial subject of the operation of ports.
Covering a range of ports in France, Spain, Portugal and the Canary
Islands, the book contains a wealth of original research findings.
It will be particularly welcomed by English-speaking scholars and
others outside the region analysed, since it gives access to
non-English-language archives, thereby considerably enriching the
study of medieval portsbeyond ports in Britain and Ireland.
