The dichotomous topics, 'poverty and prosperity', 'rich and poor',
continue to interest scholars, politicians, and philosophers while
also appealing to a wide general audience, and are particularly of
interest today. In this volume, the authors raise and try to answer
questions about the ways in which individuals, families, ethnic and
religious groups and nations 500, 1000, or even 1500, years ago
approached the idea of economic status and personal worth. The
interdisciplinary nature of this volume provides an analysis of
poverty and prosperity from a multitude of perspectives and within
a host of secular and religious literature: historical treatises,
scholastic works, art, travellers' and political accounts. Through
its breadth, depth, and interdisciplinary focus, the present volume
makes a full contribution to the topic for anyone interested in how
people in the past have experienced these states.
