Cities and Solidarities charts the ways in which the study of
individuals and places can revitalise our understanding of urban
communities as dynamic interconnections of solidarities in medieval
and early modern Europe. This volume sheds new light on the
socio-economic conditions, the formal and informal institutions,
and the strategies of individual town dwellers that explain the
similarities and differences in the organisation and functioning of
urban communities in pre-modern Europe. It considers how
communities within cities and towns are constructed and
reconstructed, how interactions amongst members of differing groups
created social and economic institutions, and how urban communities
reflected a sense of social cohesion. In answering these questions,
the contributions combine theoretical frameworks with new digital
methodologies in order to provoke further discussion into the
fundamental nature of urban society in this key period of change.
The essays in this collection demonstrate the complexities of urban
societies in pre-modern Europe, and will make fascinating reading
for students and scholars of medieval and early modern urban
history.
