The issues around settlement, belonging, and poor relief have for
too long been understood largely from the perspective of England
and Wales. This volume offers a pan-European survey that
encompasses Switzerland, Prussia, Belgium, the Netherlands, and
Britain. It explores how the conception of belonging changed over
time and space from the 1500s onwards, how communities dealt with
the welfare expectations of an increasingly mobile population that
migrated both within and between states, the welfare rights that
were attached to those who "belonged," and how ordinary people
secured access to welfare resources. What emerged was a
sophisticated European settlement system, which on the one hand
structured itself to limit the claims of the poor, and yet on the
other was peculiarly sensitive to their demands and negotiations.

This book focusses on the instruments, practices, and materialities
produced by various authorities to monitor, regulate, and identify
migrants in European cities from the sixteenth to the twentieth
centuries. Whereas research on migration regulation typically looks
at local policies for the early modern period and at state policies
for the contemporary period, this book avoids the stalemate of
modernity narratives by exploring a long-term genealogy of
migration regulation in which cities played a pivotal role. The
case studies range from early modern Venice, Stockholm and
Constantinople, to nineteenth- and twentieth-century port towns and
capital cities such as London and Vienna.
Contrary to earlier views of preindustrial Europe as an essentially
sedentary society, research over the past decades has amply
demonstrated that migration was a pervasive characteristic of early
modern Europe. In this volume, the theme of urban migration is
explored through a series of historical contexts, journeying from
sixteenth-century Antwerp, Ulm, Lille and Valenciennes, through
seventeenth-century Berlin, Milan and Rome, to eighteenth-century
Strasbourg, Trieste, Paris and London. Each chapter demonstrates
how the presence of diverse and often temporary groups of migrants
was a core feature of everyday urban life, which left important
marks on the demographic, economic, social, political, and cultural
characteristics of individual cities. The collection focuses on the
interventions by urban authorities and institutions in a
wide-ranging set of domains, as they sought to stimulate, channel
and control the newcomers' movements and activities within the
cities and across the cities' borders. While striving for a broad
geographical and chronological coverage in a comparative
perspective, the volume aims to enhance our insight into the
different factors that shaped urban migration policies in different
European settings west of the Elbe. By laying bare the complex
interactions of actors, interests, conflicts, and negotiations
involved in the regulation of migration, the case studies shed
light on the interrelations between burghership, guilds, relief
arrangements, and police in the incorporation of newcomers and in
shaping the shifting boundaries between wanted and unwanted
migrants. By relating to a common analytical framework, presented
in the introductory chapter, they engage in a comparative
discussion that allows for the formulation of general insights and
the identification of long term transformations that transcend the
time and place specificities of the case studies in question. The
introduction and final chapters connect insights derived from the
individual case-study chapters to present wide ranging conclusions
that resonate with both historical and present-day debates on
migration.
Taking the Belgian city of Antwerp as a case-study, this book
argues that the direction of nineteenth century societal change was
such as to make some groups of people better suited to reap the
benefits of new opportunities.

These translations are a book length selection in English of the
poetry of Robert Marteau, a distinguished contemporary French poet,
novelist, and art critic. His poems have been admired in France for
their richness of language and imagery, and for their densely
particular rendering of the actual world. Reflecting M. Marteau's
deep preoccupation with the French countryside, the poems often
touch on his native Poitou and Charente, a region of woods and salt
marshes, small farming villages and Romanesque churches. Originally
published in 1979. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
Winner of the 2005 Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize.
The long-awaited follow-up to "The Key to the City"--a finalist for
the National Book Critics Circle Award in 1986--Anne Winters's "The
Displaced of Capital" emanates a quiet and authoritative passion
for social justice, embodying the voice of a subtle, sophisticated
conscience.
The "displaced" in the book's title refers to the poor, the
homeless, and the disenfranchised who populate New York, the city
that serves at once as gritty backdrop, city of dreams, and urban
nightmare. Winters also addresses the culturally, ethnically, and
emotionally excluded and, in these politically sensitive poems,
writes without sentimentality of a cityscape of tenements and
immigrants, offering her poetry as a testament to the lives of
have-nots. In the central poem, Winters witnesses the relationship
between two women of disparate social classes whose friendship
represents the poet's political convictions. With poems both
powerful and musical, "The Displaced of Capital" marks Anne
Winters's triumphant return and assures her standing as an
essential New York poet.

The Key to the City brings together work that has long been admired
by readers of literary magazines and quarterlies. The collection
opens with "The Ruins," a group of poems set in poor neighborhoods
in New York City-some so cut off from midtown that they seem part
of another continent or another age. The people in these poems are
schoolgirls, a cleaning lady in the laundromat, derelicts, a
prostitute stabbed in the street. Their interwoven voices
contribute to a complex, grave vision of remote causes and
immediate suffering in the city. The poems of the second section
explore a broad range of experience: pregnancy and nursing, inward
solitude, the textures of Renaissance painting and American
landscapes.
