Book Synopsis Methods in Premodern Economic History by : Ulla Kypta
Download or read book Methods in Premodern Economic History written by Ulla Kypta and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection demonstrates how economic history can be analysed using both quantitative and qualitative methods, connecting statistical research with the social, cultural and psychological aspects of history. With their focus on the time between the end of the commercial revolution and the Black Death (c. 1300), and the Thirty Years’ War (c. 1600), Kypta et al. redress a significant lack of published work regarding economic history methodology in the premodern period. Case studies stem from the Holy Roman Empire, one of the most important economic regions in premodern times, and reconnect the German premodern economic history approach with the grand narratives that have been developed mainly for Western European regions. Methodological approaches stemming from economics as well as from sociology and cultural studies show how multifaceted research in economic history can be, and how it might accordingly offer us new insights into premodern economies. Chapters 9 and 10 are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
Book Synopsis Markets and their Actors in the Late Middle Ages by : Tanja Skambraks
Download or read book Markets and their Actors in the Late Middle Ages written by Tanja Skambraks and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Markets feature prominently in recent research of premodern historians as well as economists. Discussions cover the questions, for example, how a market can be grasp as a place, an event or a mechanism of exchange, or whether premodern economies have just hosted markets or if some of them can even be regarded as market economies. The proposed volume will now turn to the agents who forged and connected markets. Exchange was done between persons and with the help of persons: Artisans, retailers and poor people tried to better their living conditions by engaging on the market, merchants interconnected different markets, urban personnel (such as brokers, men working at the public scales, or the town council as a whole) regulated and facilitated exchange. By focusing on economic practices and the agents who performed them, the volume aims at analyzing the specific characteristics of premodern markets, the reasons why people became active on the market and the institutions which formed exchange processes and were in turn shaped by them.
Book Synopsis Germany under the Old Regime 1600-1790 by : John G. Gagliardo
Download or read book Germany under the Old Regime 1600-1790 written by John G. Gagliardo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German history in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries is notoriously inaccessible to non-specialists. When other European countries were well on the way to becoming nation states, Germany remained frozen as a territorially-fragmented, politically and religiously-divided society. The achievement of this major contribution to the new History of Germany is to do justice to the variety and multiplicity of the period without foundering under the wealth of information it conveys.
Book Synopsis Ecology, Economy and State Formation in Early Modern Germany by : Paul Warde
Download or read book Ecology, Economy and State Formation in Early Modern Germany written by Paul Warde and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-06-29 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an innovative analysis of the agrarian world and growth of government in early modern Germany through the medium of pre-industrial society's most basic material resource, wood. Paul Warde offers a regional study of south-west Germany from the late fifteenth to the early eighteenth century, demonstrating the stability of the economy and social structure through periods of demographic pressure, warfare and epidemic. He casts light on the nature of 'wood shortages' and societal response to environmental challenge, and shows how institutional responses largely based on preventing local conflict were poor at adapting to optimise the management of resources. Warde further argues for the inadequacy of models that oppose the 'market' to a 'natural economy' in understanding economic behaviour. This is a major contribution to debates about the sustainability of peasant society in early modern Europe, and to the growth of ecological approaches to history and historical geography.
Book Synopsis Was bleibt von marxistischen Perspektiven in der Geschichtsforschung? by : Alf Lüdtke
Download or read book Was bleibt von marxistischen Perspektiven in der Geschichtsforschung? written by Alf Lüdtke and published by Wallstein Verlag. This book was released on 1997 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presentación del editor: "Seit den 1960er Jahren haben marxistische Historiker aus England, Frankreich und den USA wesentliche Innovationen in der Geschichtswissenschaft vorangetrieben. Im Sowjetmarxismus hingegen war Historiographie weithin zur Legitimationswissenschaft verkommen. Was wird daraus in einer veränderten Welt? Mit Beiträgen von Ludolf Kuchenbuch, Alf Lüdtke, Madhavan Palat, Gerald M. Sider, Gareth Stedman Jones. Historische Umwälzungen sind nicht auf Europa und "1989" beschränkt. In keinem Fall trifft die These, Geschichte sei "an ihr Ende" gekommen. Welche Konzepte und Wissensformen taugen aber, wenn die der "Geisteswissenschaften" nicht mehr tragen? Perspektivenwechsel werden unter vielerlei Vorzeichen diskutiert. Zentral ist die Frage, wie die Geschichtlichkeit sozialer und kultureller Praxis bestimmt werden kann - jenseits des Eurozentrismus. Die Bände dieser Reihe bieten dafür ein Forum."
Book Synopsis Freedom and Capitalism in Early Modern Europe by : Philipp Robinson Rössner
Download or read book Freedom and Capitalism in Early Modern Europe written by Philipp Robinson Rössner and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-12 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book hinges upon ideas and discourses variously known under labels such as “Mercantilism” and “Cameralism”. Often viewed as antithesis of capitalism, inclusive institutions and good economy in the “West”, this book re-assembles them and builds them into a coherent origin story of modern capitalism. It explores the field of intellectual and conceptual history, especially the history of Renaissance and Mercantilism in a longer history of capitalism. Rather than hindrances, the author argues that Mercantilist and Cameralist political economies presented essential stepping stones of modern capitalism, in Britain and beyond. This book will be of interest to academics and students in general economic history, the history of capitalism, economic development and the history of economic thought.
Book Synopsis Power and Exploitation in the Czech Lands in the 10th - 12th Centuries by : Tomáš Petráček
Download or read book Power and Exploitation in the Czech Lands in the 10th - 12th Centuries written by Tomáš Petráček and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-04-03 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power and Exploitation in the Czech Lands in the 10th-12th Centuries: A Central European Perspective offers a unique analysis of the history of early medieval Czech society. It draws new attention to the role of serfdom and slavery in the early period of the Přemyslid dynasty in the Czech lands, and the organization of land and property access and ownership. The provocative conclusions reached by the author in this study shed new light on the oldest period of Czech history. Petráček analyses these issues comparatively, also taking into account Poland and Hungary; this is an approach unique to this book.
Book Synopsis The Thirty Years War by : Ronald Asch
Download or read book The Thirty Years War written by Ronald Asch and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1997-05-21 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians have tried time and again to identify the central issues of the conflict which devastated Europe between 1618 and 1648. The Thirty Years War by Ronald G. Asch puts the religious and constitutional struggle in the Holy Roman Empire squarely back into the centre of events. However, other issues are not neglected. Thus the problems of war finance are shown to be an important key to the interaction between inter-state and domestic conflicts during the war. Equally confessional tensions are analysed as a decisive factor linking international and domestic disputes, and the reader is provided with a succinct narrative account concentrating on the major turning points of the war.

Download or read book Courtly Culture written by Joachim Bumke and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 788 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every aspect of "courtly culture" comes to life in Joachim Bumke's extraordinarily rich and well-documented presentation. A renowned medievalist with an encyclopedic knowledge of original sources and a passion for history, Bumke overlooks no detail, from the material realities of aristocratic society -- the castles and clothing, weapons and transportation, food, drink, and table etiquette -- to the behavior prescribed and practiced at tournaments, knighting ceremonies, and great princely feasts. The courtly knight and courtly lady, and the transforming idea of courtly love, are seen through the literature that celebrated them, and we learn how literacy among an aristocratic laity spread from France through Germany and became the basis of a cultural revolution. At the same time, Bumke clearly challenges those who have comfortably confused the ideals of courtly culture with their expression in courtly society.
Book Synopsis Germany and the Holy Roman Empire by : Joachim Whaley
Download or read book Germany and the Holy Roman Empire written by Joachim Whaley and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-11-24 with total page 826 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germany and the Holy Roman Empire offers a striking new interpretation of a crucial era in German and European history, from the great reforms of 1495-1500 to the dissolution of the Reich in 1806. Over two volumes, Joachim Whaley rejects the notion that this was a long period of decline, and shows instead how imperial institutions developed in response to the crises of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, notably the Reformation and Thirty Years War. The impact of international developments on the Reich is also examined. The first volume begins with an account of the reforms of the reign of Maximilian I and concludes with the Peace of Westphalia in 1648. It offers a new interpretation of the Reformation, the Peasants' War, the Schmalkaldic War and the Peace of Augsburg, and of the post-Reformation development of Protestantism and Catholicism. The German policy successfully resisted the ambitions of Charles V and the repeated onslaughtsof both the Ottomans and the French, and it remained stable in the face of the French religious wars and the Dutch Revolt. The volume concludes with an analysis of the Thirty Years War as an essentially German constitutional conflict, triggered by the problems of the Habsburg dynasty and prolonged by the interventions of foreign powers. The Peace of Westphalia, which ended the conflict, both reflected the development of the German polity since the late fifteenth century and created teh framework for its development over the next hundred and fifty years.

Book Synopsis Golden Leaves and Burned Books by : Teemu Immonen
Download or read book Golden Leaves and Burned Books written by Teemu Immonen and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-07-30 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In religious reforms, books and other forms of written communication play a dominant role, both for individuals as well as for groups. Covering the period from the late Middle Ages to the early seventeenth century, the chapters of this volume reflect on the use of books in religious reform movements and their impact on lay people and monastic communities. For those committed to religious renewal, books are the necessary and often enthusiastically welcomed vehicles for the transmission of religious reform concepts. They are at the same time often the objects of severe opposition and negative reactions in attempts at hindering or reversing religious reform for others. The researchers make use of approaches from cultural history, book history and English studies, among others. Contributions range from theory and practices of religious reform with special regard to the interaction between the laity and religious orders in their search for models of 'good religious living' to research on the changing processes of communication from manuscript to print and their impact on religious renewal.
