The volume's focus on the materiality and organising logic of a range of accounts is complemented by close attention to the socio-political contexts in which they functioned and the agency of central and local officials.The volume is divided into three parts: the role of financial accountability in the political designs of late medieval states, the uses of accounts auditing and information management as tools for governance, and their impact on the everyday life of local communities. Covering both the centre and the periphery of medieval Europe, from England and the Papal curia to Savoy and Transylvania, the case studies evince the difficult passage from the early experiments with financial accounts towards an accountability of office. 410 0$aUtrecht studies in medieval literacy. 517 $aAccounts and Accountability in Late Medieval Europe 607 $aEurope$xEconomic conditions$yTo 1492 676 $a330.9401 702 $aEpurescu-Pascovici$b Ionut? 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476856103321 996 $aAccounts and accountability in late medieval Europe$93362714 997 $aUNINA
