Lordship, Capitalism, and the State in Flanders (C. 12501570)

Summary

Recreating the seigneurial landscape of Flanders (home to one per cent of the population of Europe) for the first time, this book challenges the interpretation of the Burgundian-Habsburg Low Countries as a proto-bourgeois society demonstrating the seigneurie was a vital institution with societal impact throughout the late medieval period.
