For that reason, citizenship and democracy are generally considered as concepts typical of the political experience of Classical Antiquity. These concepts of citizenship and democracy are often seen as inconsistent with the political, social, and ideological context of the late and post-Roman world. As a result, scholarship has largely overlooked participation in local political communities when it comes to the period between the disintegration of the Classical model of local citizenship in the later Roman Empire and the emergence of ?pre-communal? entities in Northern Italy from the ninth century onwards. By reassessing the period c. 300-1000 ce through the concepts of civic identity and civic participation, this volume will address both the impact of Classical heritage with regard to civic identities in the political experiences of the late and post-Roman world, and the rephrasing of new forms of social and political partnership according to ethnic or religious criteria in the early Middle Ages. Starting from the earlier imperial background, the fourteen chapters examine the ways in which people shared identity and gave shape to their communal life, as well as the role played by the people in local government in the later Roman Empire, the Germanic kingdoms, Byzantium, the early Islamic world, and the early medieval West. By focusing on the post-Classical, late antique, and early medieval periods, this volume intends to be an innovative contribution to the general history of citizenship and democracy. 410 0$aCultural encounters in late antiquity and the Middle Ages. 606 $aHistory$2bicssc 606 $aGeneral & world history$2bicssc 606 $aPolitical structures: democracy$2bicssc 606 $aCivil rights & citizenship$2bicssc 610 $ahistory; citizenship; democracy 615 7$aHistory 615 7$aGeneral & world history 615 7$aPolitical structures: democracy 615 7$aCivil rights & citizenship 700 $aBre?laz$b Ce?dric$f1976-$0625848 701 $aRose$b Els$f1972-$01736635 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910583596003321 996 $aCivic Identity and Civic Participation in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages$94159804 997 $aUNINA
