Description

The Economy of Medieval Hungary is the first concise, English-language volume about the economic life of medieval Hungary. It is a product of the cooperation of specialists representing various disciplines of medieval studies, including archaeologists, archaeozoologists, specialists in medieval demography, historical hydrologists, climate and environmental historians, as well as archivists and church historians. The twenty-five chapters of the book focus on structures of medieval economy, different means and ways of human-nature interactions in production, and offer an overview of the different spheres of economic life, with a particular emphasis on taxation, income and commercial activity. Thanks to its interdisciplinary character, this volume is a basic handbook for the history of economy, production and material culture. Contributors are Krisztina Arany, Laszlo Bartosiewicz, Zoltan Batizi, Anna Zsofia Biller, Peter Csippan, Laszlo Daroczi-Szabo, Marta Daroczi-Szabo, Istvan Draskoczy, Istvan Feld, Laszlo Ferenczi, Erika Gal, Marton Gyoengyoessy, Istvan Kenyeres, Istvan Kovats, Andras Kubinyi, Kyra Lyublyanovics, Arpad Nogrady, Eva Agnes Nyerges, Istvan Petrovics, Zsolt Pinke, Beatrix F. Romhanyi, Katalin Szende, Laszlo Szende, Magdolna Szilagyi, Csaba Toth, and Boglarka Weisz.
