Hardback. Condición: New. Essays exploring and problematizing the idea of an "exceptional" England within Western Europe during the long thirteenth century. The theme of this volume, "Exceptional England", follows on from that of the previous one, "England in Europe". Both respond to two long-term historiographical trends among British medievalists: to place England and Britain in a wider European context, and, conversely, to emphasise the differences between developments in England and those elsewhere, either explicitly or implicitly. The essays here, in tackling aspects of political, religious, cultural and urban history, are often concerned with shifts that transcend the "national" because they are driven by forces operating on a European, or at least a western European, scale. A number bring developments in England into conversation with those in other regions, turning not only to France, a traditional comparator, but also ranging further, using Poland, Italy, Spain and Hungary as points of comparison. Others problematise England's boundaries by considering the fates of people caught between worlds as English continental possessions shrank. If England emerges in these essays as rather less "exceptional", some of the contributions highlight its unusually rich sources, suggesting ways in which these riches might illuminate the history of Europe in the long thirteenth century more generally. Particular subjects addressed include the fortunes of the knightly class, the dynamics of episcopal election, and models of child kingship, along with new studies of Gerald of Wales and Simon de Montfort.

Softcover, 128 pagina's, 21 x 27 cm, Nederlandstalige tekst. *Nieuw ISBN 9789076297910. Het boek ?Vrijheid in de middeleeuwse stad? gaat over het prille ontstaan van burgerschap in de Vlaamse steden van de twaalfde en dertiende eeuw. Het schetst een herkenbaar verhaal over toenemende migratie, sociale polarisatie en het afschermen van verworven rechten. Het boek buigt zich over een waaier aan grote en kleine steden van het graafschap Vlaanderen, maar voor de gelegenheid zal de auteur focussen op de Brugse casus. Elke stad ging zo op haar eigen manier om met de sociale spanningen en maatschappelijke veranderingen in de twaalfde en dertiende eeuw. Het burgerschap was hierin een belangrijk instrument. In de grote handelsstad Brugge hadden prominente stedelingen een streepje voor op de rest en werden woorden voor ?burger? zelfs synoniem voor de elite. Deze uitgave is een samenwerking tussen het Genootschap voor Geschiedenis en Uitgeverij Van de Wiele. 0 g.
