People and Space in the Middle Ages, 300-1300

This book is about the relationship between populations, territory and community membership in the Middle Ages in western Europe. The contributors believe that a strong awareness of land and landscape in the present is essential to understanding the relationships between people and territory in the past. They address such issues as: what determined the size and shape of communities in the early historic past? What were the roles of the environment, of labor patterns, of the church, of the physical proximity of residences in determining community identity?
