Abstract | This is the fifth of a five-part session series that aims at calling together scholars from the western and eastern regions of Europe working on the field of social topography and elite research in medieval urban context and conducting a small workshop on issues such as the usage of urban space with regard to social structures, the social mobility of town leaders, the circles from where they was recruited or their mobility with regard to urban space, the social networks of the ruling elite as well as the topography of crafts in order to comparatively approach these phenomena in the different regions of medieval Europe. |
