Segregation - Integration - Assimilation

Religious and Ethnic Groups in the Medieval Towns of Central and Eastern Europe

286 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Whilst most historical investigations of ethnic and religious minorities concentrate on a single town or particular group, this volume offers a much broader geographical and chronological view. Looking at towns across western, and particularly, eastern Europe from the late antique period to the fifteenth century, these papers illustrate the changing nature of questions of identity, perception, legal status and relations between groups, together with the ways in which these elements were affected by the external political regimes and ideologies to which towns were inevitably subjected.
