In the twelfth to sixteenth centuries, the exploitation of
landownership underwent drastic changes in various parts of
Northwestern Europe. In these changes, the emergence of the lease
plays a pivotal role. At the end of the Middle Ages, in a number of
areas within the North Sea area, the greater part of available land
was held at lease for relatively short terms. The competitive and
contractual nature of such leasing has caused many to associate it
with the emergence of capitalism in the countryside, seeing its
rise as a key element in the transformation of the rural economy
and society in the last millennium. In view of this, it is
surprising that the emergence of leasing has received little
systematic attention, particularly where its roots, its early
development, its exact arrangements and the social and economic
context of its emergence are concerned, let alone the regional and
chronological differences in these elements. This volume aims to
make a first step in exploring these issues.
