Edizione: | Brepols Publishers, 2021 | Collana: | Studies in European Urban History (1100-1800) | Tempi di rifornimento | Indicativamente procurabile in 15-20 giorni lavorativi | Info disponibilità | Rifornimento in corso | Prezzo di acquisto | € 84,00 | Descrizione | The oeuvre of Marc Boone (Ghent, 1955) has become standard reading for specialists of medieval European towns and cities, as well as for those interested in the history of state building - most notably that of the Burgundian polity. Honoring Ghent University?s venerable tradition of medieval studies begun by Henri Pirenne and building upon the work of his Doktorvater Walter Prevenier, Marc Boone also investigated taxation and the history of government spending, popular protest, and the persecution of ?deviant? sexuality. Over the course of his rich career, he served as president of the European Association of Urban History and as dean of the Faculty of Arts and Philosophy of Ghent University. For more than twenty years, he taught the introductory course on historical criticism to every first-year student of the faculty, and thus had a major impact on the pensée critique of generations of young minds. Upon the occasion of his retirement in 2021, his former students have compiled this collection of some of his best historical essays, half of which have been translated from French and Dutch into English. | Aggiungi al Carrello |

Edizione: | Brepols Publishers, 2013 | Collana: | Studies in European Urban History (1100-1800) | Tempi di rifornimento | Indicativamente procurabile in 15-20 giorni lavorativi | Info disponibilità | Rifornimento in corso | Prezzo di acquisto | € 77,00 | Descrizione | This volume examines the politics of space in the most densely urbanized areas of Europe during the late Middle Ages and Renaissance. It ranges from Italy to the Parisian region and then to the greater Low Countries, home of Europe?s most powerful commercial cities of the period. Hardly inert sites on which political action took place, the spaces these authors investigate conferred power on those who possessed them. At the same time they were themselves transformed by the struggles, thus acquiring new powers that invited future contest. Thus implicitly responding to Georges Lefebvre?s claim that space is ?produced?, the authors ask how space was perceived and used in everyday life, giving specific spaces cultural, social, and political coherence (?le perçu?); how it was represented or theorized, thus encoded in symbols, maps and laws (?le conçu?); and how it was lived, in effect the result of the dialectical relation between the perceived and the represented (?le vécu?).
