The role of small towns in building Medieval Europe

It is our aim to promote an approach to urban studies which, repeatedly but discontinuously, appears on the horizon of historical, geographical, sociological and anthropological research, always with a certain stigma as an inferior and unattractive subject of analysis. Inferior, because each time it has been considered on a comparative scale, it comes up against the variability of definitions of its designating attribute. It is unattractive inasmuch as it is not satisfied by scientific approaches rooted in the intention to capture decisive and major development processes. By combining several scientific areas, this conference aims to give a voice to the small towns of a Medieval Europe, increasingly perceived as "moving".

Supplying and financing the court

Economic relations between Iberian courts and urban societies at the end of the Middle Ages

Ce colloque international organisé les 27-28 novembre 2014 à l'Universitat de València par Alexandra Beauchamp (U. Limoges, EA 4270-CRIHAM), Antoni Furió (U. València), la Casa de Velázquez (EHEHI, Madrid) et l'Universitat de València, se propose d’examiner les relations entre la cour et la cité qui l’héberge, entre les cours royales ou nobiliaires d’une part, et les citadins d’autre part, en terme d’approvisionnement et de financement, dans la Péninsule ibérique, aux deux derniers siècles du Moyen Âge. Il s'agit de mieux cerner les conditions économiques nécessaires pour que la cour puisse s’installer dans une ville, l’impact de la présence des cours sur la vie économique urbaine, la contribution des villes au train de vie fastueux des cours, ainsi que la concurrence ou les antagonismes au niveau économique, si ils existent, entre le monde curial et le monde urbain, ou entre les différentes villes.
