New Perspectives on the 'Civil Wars' in Medieval Scandinavia
, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 448 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:11 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503601502.
Summary In the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, Scandinavia was rocked by an ongoing period of ?civil war?, conflicts traditionally characterized by medieval historians as internal struggles that took place in the context of predominantly national, state-centred, political and constitutional frameworks. This volume, however, aims to overturn these established narratives, with carefully curated essays written by experts in the field offering a new pan-Scandinavian perspective on the period in question that emphasizes the importance of fluid, often overlapping social networks, permeable borders between realms, and constant underlying hostilities between rival groups. Through detailed examinations of pivotal moments in Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish history, together with analyses of topographical patterns, gender issues, diplomacy, and three contributions that draw parallels within similar conflicts outside of Scandinavia, this book provides an important corrective to teleological narratives of the medieval ?civil wars? as a necessary stage on the route to state formation and modernity.

Sociability and its Discontents. Civil Society, Social Capital, and their Alternatives in Late Medieval and Early Modern Europe,
Turnhout, Brepols, 2010 Hardback, VII+326 p., 3 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503524733.
This volume advances our knowledge of continuing trends over the longue duree of European history. It also exposes many differences separating contemporaries from their medieval and early modern ancestors. In putting the concept of social capital to the test, the authors also expose the strengths, weaknesses, and limits of the 'Putnam thesis'. The essays address fourteenth-century English fears of old-age neglect; childhood, friendship, scandal, and rivalry in Renaissance Florence; rebellion in an Italian village; social capital and seigneurial power in southern and north-central Italy; guild violence in Calvinist Ghent; civil society in early-modern Bologna, Naples and the Papal State; gender in High Renaissance Rome; and critical analyses of the transition from religious to secular sensibilities that scholars (following Jurgen Habermas) have identified in eighteenth-century Europe. In each case, the topic is considered in relation to recent theories of 'social capital': the informal, intangible bonds of trust upon which, social scientist Robert Putnam argues, every human community depends. The result is a series of highly original case-studies which reveal the workings of late medieval and early modern European society from new and often unexpected angles. Languages : English.
