| Sumario: | The contributors to this collection of essays in honour of the distinguished medieval historian Edward Miller pay tribute by writing on the society and economy of England between the eleventh and the sixteenth centuries. They address many of the most important themes in an era which experienced profound change in rural, commercial, urban and industrial life, and they focus in particular on the progress which was achieved and the problems which were encountered. Each of the essays is original and contains the fruits of new research. The subjects covered include the growth of London, the commercial and urban development of the north, Italian merchants and banking, overseas trade, taxation, farm servants, hunting and poaching, changing relations between landlords and tenants, the expansion of the economy in the twelfth century and the great slump of the fifteenth. The book has been written by leading experts, and is a major contribution to English medieval economic and social history. |
