New Approaches to the History of Late Medieval and Early Modern Europe

The articles in the first three parts of New Approaches... try to outline and assess new trends within late medieval studies. Focusing on first political history, then social and cultural history, and finally legal history, they are especially interested in those areas where research has advanced most from the late 1960s to the late 1990s, and where results of importance for our understanding of the late medieval period as such has been produced.

In a large fourth part, the articles address all aspects of crisis and transformation in the late medieval and early modern period.
