List of illustrations -- Introduction Chris Wickham -- Concepts of the early medieval economy John Moreland -- Exchange and politics: the eighth-early ninth century in Denmark Ulf Nasman -- The significance of production in eighth-century England John Moreland -- Roman cities, emporia and new towns (sixth-ninth centuries) Adriaan Verhulst -- The role of the monasteries in the systems of production and exchange of the Frankish world between the seventh and the beginning of the ninth century Stephane Lebecq -- Before or after mission. Social relations across the middle and lower Rhine in the seventh and eight centuries Ian Wood -- Marseille and the Pirenne thesis II: "ville morte" S.T. Loseby -- Some considerations on the coinage of Lombard and Carolingian Italy Alessia Rovelli -- Production, distribution and demand in the Byzantine world, c. 660-840 John Haldon -- Production, echange and regional trade in the Islamic East Mediterranean: old structures, new systems? Alan Walmsley -- Overview: production, distribution and demand, II Chris Wickham -- Index.
The eighth century has not been analysed as a period of economic history since the 1930s, and is ripe for a comprehensive reassessment. The twelve papers in this book range over the whole of Europe and the Mediterranean from Denmark to Palestine, covering Francia, Italy and Byzantium on the way. They examine regional economies and associated political structures, that is to say the whole network of production, exchange, and social relations in each area. They offer both authoritative overviews of current work and new and original work. As a whole, they show how the eighth century was the first century when the post-Roman world can clearly be seen to have emerged, in the regional economies of each part of Europe
