"The Mountains and the City" is a rare discussion in English of the history of a region of Europe, a genre common in other countries but undeveloped in Britain. The book deals with two mountain valleys in Tuscany from the eight to the twelfth century, with some examination of their future progress into the sixteenth. It charts their internal social and economic development and their links with the emerging world of the Italian city states. The importance of the book is in its stress on the small-scale society of the mountains; on the relation of local society to its geographical environment; and, above all, in its concern to see society from below, through the activities of local people, rather than through the interests of their masters. In its focus on local interaction, this is one of the few anthropological studies of medieval history that has yet been written.ACLS Humanities E-Book.Mountains and the CityMOUNTAINS AND THE CITY, THEMOUNTAINS AND THE CITY: THE TUSCAN APPENNINES IN THE EARLY MIDDLE AGESTHE MOUNTAINS AND THE CITYTHE MOUNTAINS & THE CITY: THE TUSCAN APPENNINES IN THE EARLY MIDDLE AGESCastelnuovo di Garfagnana (Italy)Social conditionsCastelnuovo di Garfagnana (Italy)Economic conditionsRegions & Countries - EuropeHILCCHistory & ArchaeologyHILCCItalyHILCCCastelnuovo di Garfagnana (Italy)HistoryCasentino Valley (Italy)HistoryCasentino Valley (Italy)Social conditionsCasentino Valley (Italy)Economic conditionsCastelnuovo di Garfagnana (Italy)Social conditions.Castelnuovo di Garfagnana (Italy)Economic conditions.Regions & Countries - EuropeHistory & ArchaeologyItaly945/.53Wickham Chris1950-155127American Council of Learned Societies.MiUMiUBOOK996247922903316The mountains and the city3011331UNISA
