The present volume invites readers to consider the meaning of rural space, both in light of ecocritical readings and social-historical approaches. While previous scholars examined the figure of the peasant in the premodern world, the current volume combines a large number of specialized studies that investigate how the natural environment and the appearance of members of the rural population interacted with the world of the court and of the city. The experience in rural space was important already for writers and artists in the premodern era, as the large variety of scholarly approaches indicates. The present volume signals how much the surprisingly close interaction between members of the aristocratic and of the peasant class determined many literary and art-historical works. In a surprisingly large number of cases we can even discover elements of utopia hidden in rural space. We also observe how much the rural world was a significant element already in early-medieval mentality. Moreover, as many authors point out, the impact of natural forces on premodern society was tremendous, if not catastrophic. 410 0$aFundamentals of medieval and early modern culture ;$v9. 606 $aLiterature, Medieval$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPeasants in literature 606 $aRural conditions in literature 606 $aEuropean literature$yRenaissance, 1450-1600$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEcocriticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLiterature, Medieval$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPeasants in literature. 615 0$aRural conditions in literature. 615 0$aEuropean literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEcocriticism. 676 $a809/.9335208863 701 $aClassen$b Albrecht$016691 701 $aClason$b Christopher R$01055980 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462436003321 996 $aRural space in the Middle Ages and early modern age$92489980 997 $aUNINA
