Abstract

"No detailed comparison of the city-state in medieval Europe has been undertaken over the last century. Research has concentrated on the role of city-states and their republican polities as harbingers of the modern state, or else on their artistic and cultural achievements, above all in Italy. Much less attention has been devoted to the cities' territorial expansion: why, how, and with what consequences cities in the urban belt, stretching from central and northern Italy over the Alps to Switzerland, Germany, and the low countries, succeeded (or failed) in constructing sovereign polities, with or without dependent territories. Tom Scott goes beyond the customary focus on the leading Italian city-states to include, for the first time, detailed coverage of the Swiss city-states and the imperial cities of Germany. He criticizes current typologies of the city-state in Europe advanced by political and social scientists to suggest that the city-state was not a spent force in early modern Europe, but rather survived by transformation and adaption. He puts forward instead a typology which embraces both time and space by arguing for a regional framework for analysis which does not treat city-states in isolation but within a wider geopolitical setting."--Publisher's website.

Abstract

The present volume brings together European and American scholars from a range of complementary disciplines (cartographers, economic and social historians, historians of social and political institutions, economic geographers, historians of art and textual analysts), all of whom are interested in exploring potential interconnections between their respective approaches to the study of regions and landscapes, 'real' or imagined, in the early modern and medieval periods. Focusing on the Rhineland and Low Countries, the essays offer a collective, interdisciplinary approach which aims to shed light on at least some of the complexities underlying any attempt to analyse what we might understand by landscape or region in a particular historical context.
