  • Book Description

    Medieval Bruges provides an early model of a great capitalist city. The book examines the factors which contributed to Bruges' economic success such as the shift to sea-borne commerce and the efforts of the city's population to fashion a great commercial centre. With its study of diverse topics such as the city's political history, its advantageous communications position, the wool, cloth and gold trade and the role of women in the market, it provides both a case-study in medieval economic history and a social and cultural history of medieval Bruges.
