Trade, Money, and Power in Medieval England

Über Trade, Money, and Power in Medieval England

The sixteen articles in this collection analyse the wealth created by overseas trade and the development of the English economy, during the late Anglo-Saxon period up to the advent of the Tudors. The papers include general surveys of the importance of coinage. They also illustrate how the English crown used its control and exploitation of the coinage as part of a sophisticated fiscal system which helped create the precocious power of the English state. The book also discusses how the wool trade altered the geographical pattern of wealth, and the competing interests involved in the trade in turn caused political conflicts in Parliament and London¿s local government.
