Abstract

This volume encompasses a comprehensive collection of recent work in medieval Italian history and the archaeology of settlement and exchange by an international cast of contributors, arranged within a broad context of studies on other regions and on major historical transitions in Europe from c.400 to c.1400CE. Taking different approaches, all the contributors reflect on the contribution made to the field of medieval history by Chris Wickham, whose own work spans studies based on close archival work (focused on Tuscany and Lazio) to broad and ambitious statements on economic exchange and social transformation in the transition from Roman to medieval Europe, and the value of comparisons across time and space. The book is organized into four sections, reflecting Chris’s own interests in lords and peasants, texts and memory, economic resources and the spiritual economy.
