Sommario/riassunto

"This volume celebrates Ruiz's scholarship. The macro- and micro-level studies he has realized on regional and local communities, different strata of society, and spectacles of daily life have played a central role



in developing the field of Spanish and European histories. These essays span Castile, other Iberian states, Europe, the Mediterranean, and Latin America from the twelfth to the sixteenth centuries"--Provided by publisher.
