Description:"The eleven articles in this volume examine controversial subjects of central importance to medieval economic historians. Topics include the relative roles played by money and credit in financing the economy, whether credit could compensate for shortages of coin, and whether it could counteract the devastating mortality of the Black Death. Drawing on a detailed analysis of the Statute Merchant and Staple records, the articles chart the chronological and geographical changes in the economy from the late-thirteenth to the early-sixteenth centuries. This period started with the triumph of English merchants over alien exporters in the early 1300s, and concluded in the early 1500s with cloth exports overtaking wool in value. The volume assesses how these changes came about, as well as the ways in which both political and economic forces altered the pattern of regional wealth and enterprise, in ways which saw the northern towns decline, and London rise to be the undisputed financial capital of England"--We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
