Rebirth of Urban Life Before 1200, no town in Western Europe had more than 30,000 inhabitants Functions: – Administrative centers of the Church or political leader – Fortified enclosures: provided protection to rural population under attack – Centers of local and international exchange

Medieval Trade

Urban Social Organization Hierarchical Noble (patrician)—a well-known family with a position, strength, or longevity; – required land in the countryside or merchant trade in towns – Usually derived from military service – Appointed by higher nobility to the “privilege” Townsmen—Middle class; own or work in shops to earn income to pay taxes to the nobles Peasants—farmers who brought crops to market

Political/Societal Pyramid (post-1200) Hereditary monarchs Noble families Townsmen— subordinate to a lord Serfs (semifree) or slaves

Towns and Commerce Magnets for skilled labor and goods Guilds within the towns controlled the production and price of goods of a certain craft Most peasants were allowed to bring their crops to town to sell Merchant guilds controlled in flow of a variety of goods from foreign markets and price.

Medieval Guilds Guild Hall   Commercial Monopoly:  C ontrolled membership apprentice  journeyman  master craftsman  Controlled quality of the product [masterpiece].  Controlled prices
