商品簡介
In order to acquire a better understanding of rural society in preindustrial Europe, Dutch, British, German, and one French historians examine the possession and transfer of land in a region that developed a capitalist market in land earlier than many places. They restrict their concern to privately held land, and to transfers outside the family. The CORN conference Access to Land and Land Markets was held in June 1998 in Leiden, where 11 of the 13 papers here were presented. No index is provided.
