Cartonato. Condition: fine. Edited by C. Kosso and A. Scott.English Text.Turnhout, 2012; hardback, pp. 360, 1 b/w ill., cm 16x24.(Arizona Studies in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. 19). The essays presented in this volume contribute substantially to the study of the economy and attitudes towards poverty and wealth during th…e Middle Ages and the Renaissance.The dichotomous topics, 'poverty and prosperity', 'rich and poor', continue to interest scholars, politicians, and philosophers while also appealing to a wide general audience, and are particularly of interest today. In this volume, the authors raise and try to answer questions about the ways in which individuals, families, ethnic and religious groups and nations 500, 1000, or even 1500, years ago approached the idea of economic status and personal worth. The interdisciplinary nature of this volume provides an analysis of poverty and prosperity from a multitude of perspectives and within a host of secular and religious literature: historical treatises, scholastic works, art, travellers' and political accounts. Through its breadth, depth, and interdisciplinary focus, the present volume makes a full contribution to the topic for anyone interested in how people in the past have experienced these states.
