| Publisher Description: This is the second selection of articles on economic history by Robert-Henri Bautier to be published by Variorum; the first, Sur l'histoire conomique de la France m di vale, focused on the infrastructure of economic life within the kingdom of France - the network of land and river routes, and the fairs. The present collection deals first with European trade across the Mediterranean in the 13th-14th centuries, both on an international level and with regard to particular circumstances, for example, those of Amalfi, charting the changing pattern of its commercial relationships through this period. The following articles concentrate on the 'Lombards', Italian bankers and merchants, notably from Sienna and Piacenza. Professor Bautier also looks in detail at their activities in France, both as traders at the fairs of Champagne, and as bankers and money-lenders, and makes an especial study of their role in the expansion of credit during the later Middle Ages.
