This volume explores social practices of framing, building and
enacting community in urban-rural relations across medieval
Eurasia. Introducing fresh comparative perspectives on practices
and visions of community, it offers a thorough source-based
examination of medieval communal life in its sociocultural
complexity and diversity in Central and Southeast Europe, South
Arabia and Tibet. As multi-layered social phenomena, communities
constantly formed, restructured and negotiated internal
allegiances, while sharing a topographic living space and joint
notions of belonging. The volume challenges disciplinary paradigms
and proposes an interdisciplinary set of low-threshold categories
and tools for cross-cultural comparison of urban and rural
communities in the Global Middle Ages. Contributors are Maaike van
Berkel, Hubert Feiglstorfer, Andre Gingrich, Karoly Goda, Elisabeth
Gruber, Johann Heiss, Katerina Hornickova, Eirik Hovden, Christian
Jahoda, Christiane Kalantari, Odile Kommer, Fabian Kummeler,
Christina Lutter, Judit Majorossy, Ermanno Orlando, and Noha Sadek.
