The existence and changing of generations in family life, business
and politics was a central feature of towns as well as rural
societies in earlier times. Even so, it remains understudied by
urban historians of the pre-modern period. This book aims to fill
some of this gap, containing twelve studies of generations in late
medieval and early modern European towns, ranging from the
Mediterranean to the Nordic countries, with a time-span from the
fourteenth to the early nineteenth century. Dealing with topics
like succession and inheritance, family consciousness, as well as
relations and conflicts within and between generations, the
articles demonstrate the importance and potential of generational
studies on pre-modern towns. The book will appeal to anyone who
takes an interest in urban social and cultural history, legal and
family history in medieval and early modern times.
