The Later Medieval City: 1300-1500 (A History of Urban Society in Europe) Book

This second volume deals with a much shorter period than the first - from the impact of the Black Death to the urban crises at the end of the medieval era - but the survival of fuller, richer and more varied records allows David Nicholas to get closer to the splendours and squalors of everyday life in the cities of the time. If the first volume is largely an account of a long process of urban renewal, this is in many ways a portrait of the later medieval city itself. He discusses urban government and social structure as they evolved in the wake of plagues, famines, trade disruptions and warfare. The book concludes with separate chapters on urban women, children and religious minorities, education and culture. The result is a vibrant portrait of the tenor of life in the late medieval city.Read More
