This book explores the mobility of merchants’ manuscripts—understood as written records in various forms—and their role in shaping and reflecting late medieval social structures. Focusing on merchants as key agents of manuscript circulation, it highlights their impact across fairs and markets in the Holy Roman Empire. Blending cultural and economic history, the chapters span fifteenth- and sixteenth-century case studies that challenge conventional periodization. Drawing on interdisciplinary methods, the book traces manuscripts from production to dissemination and the formation of reading communities. It argues that the history of the premodern economy is incomplete without accounting for the movement of manuscripts as material and social objects.

This edited collection demonstrates how economic history can be analysed using both quantitative and qualitative methods, connecting statistical research with the social, cultural and psychological aspects of history. With their focus on the time between the end of the commercial revolution and the Black Death (c. 1300), and the Thirty Years’ War (c. 1600), Kypta et al. redress a significant lack of published work regarding economic history methodology in the premodern period.Case studies stem from the Holy Roman Empire, one of the most important economic regions in premodern times, and reconnect the German premodern economic history approach with the grand narratives that have been developed mainly for Western European regions. Methodological approaches stemming from economics as well as from sociology and cultural studies show how multifaceted research in economic history can be, and how it might accordingly offer us new insights into premodern economies.Chapters 9 and 10 are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

Markets feature prominently in recent research of premodern historians as well as economists. Discussions cover the questions, for example, how a market can be grasp as a place, an event or a mechanism of exchange, or whether premodern economies have just hosted markets or if some of them can even be regarded as market economies.

The proposed volume will now turn to the agents who forged and connected markets. Exchange was done between persons and with the help of persons: Artisans, retailers and poor people tried to better their living conditions by engaging on the market, merchants interconnected different markets, urban personnel (such as brokers, men working at the public scales, or the town council as a whole) regulated and facilitated exchange.

By focusing on economic practices and the agents who performed them, the volume aims at analyzing the specific characteristics of premodern markets, the reasons why people became active on the market and the institutions which formed exchange processes and were in turn shaped by them.

Gesellschaftliches Zusammenleben und wirtschaftliche Aktivitäten funktionieren nur, wenn Menschen miteinander kooperieren. Die Studie untersucht, wie und warum die Zusammenarbeit von Kaufleuten in Antwerpen an der Wende vom Mittelalter zur Frühen Neuzeit gelingen konnte. Sie zeigt, wie die Händler flexibel drei verschiedene Organisationsformen kombinierten: Handelsgesellschaften, Dienerschaft und Bevollmächtigung. Ihre Motivation zur Kooperation entsprang dabei weder reinem Nutzenkalkül noch Kollektivzwang. Ohne eine feste Gruppe zu bilden, arbeiteten die Kaufleute als ''kooperative Individualisten'' zusammen, um den Handel aufrechtzuerhalten und ihre eigenen Geschäfte zu fördern. Die Analyse belegt, dass zwischen Individualismus und Zusammenarbeit, Eigennutz und Gemeinwohl nicht unbedingt ein Widerspruch bestehen muss, und trägt somit dazu bei, moderne Gegensätze und Menschenbilder zu hinterfragen.Die Arbeit wurde mit dem Preis der Humboldt-Universität für hervorragende Leistungen auf dem Gebiet der Mittelalterlichen Geschichte ausgezeichnet.

Die Autonomie der Routine

During the 12th century, one of the most durable institutions of the English government emerged: the Exchequer. For seven centuries, it was a corner stone of the royal financial administration. The study explains how the ground was laid for this long-lasting organisation. No one had planned it, not the king nor any outstanding administrative figure. The Exchequer slowly crystallized out of everyday routine actions: The sheriffs came to the royal clerks to render account of all the revenues they had received and all the expenses they had made in the name of the king. The clerks wrote down everything on large parchment rolls, called the pipe rolls. The clerks and the sheriffs were the only ones to understand the accounting language. They could easily restrict access to their group and thus create a sense of a special identity. Nevertheless, accounting procedures remained flexible enough to cope with new challenges. Slowly, a sense of belonging to the accounting team as well as standardized procedures emerged. At the end of the century, something new had developed: A certain group of people quite proud of themselves managed the accounting procedures according to certain rules. Without anyone supervising or designing the process, routine actions had themselves transformed into an organisation.
