Riassunto

"The leading academic vehicle for scholarly publication in the field of medieval warfare." Medieval Warfare This volume examines the diverse ways in which medieval European cities, towns, and other urban communities engaged with warfare. For northern Europe, articles consider how subterfuge and betrayal were deployed to capture strongholds, the role of urban communities (large and small) in English warfare in the eleventh through the thirteenth centuries, how morale was maintained (or undermined) during a siege, how Scottish cities and towns supported efforts to resist English invasion, the military agreements with magnates used by Rhineland cities to promote peace, and what economic evidence can show us about the contribution of French cities to war efforts in the later Middle Ages. Moving south, essays explore the nature of warfare in twelfth and thirteenth century Lombardy, the actions of the Angevin royal family in Tuscan urban warfare and politics, the composition of Italian armies (gleaned from cavalry musters from Bologna), the importance of the city of Murcia during the War of the Two Pedros, and the creation of chivalric spaces out of Andalucian cities.
