About the Book

Inventories are among the oldest documents to survive from ancient times. Textiles take an important place within them and inform – among other things – about value, context of use, material, fashion, trade or techniques. This is all the more relevant, as textiles were then the most important trade goods after bullion and food. The articles of this volume focus on the time between the High Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period. They represent different approaches to this fascinating topic whose social framework includes popes, kings, merchants and farmers.

About the Author :
Gabi Schopf is a research assistant and PhD student at the University of Jena, Germany. Her PhD project investigates the trade of cotton textiles on a local as well as European level. She is mainly interested in eighteenth century trading practices, including advertising, mail ordering, travelling salesman and exchanging samples. John Jordan is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Bern, Switzerland. His current research interests lie in the history of consumption, especially that of global goods and textiles, in early modern Europe. Previously, he has worked on the intersection of law and society in early modern Germany, particularly as it pertains to disputes – their initiation, conduct, management, and (sometimes) resolution. Thomas Ertl war von 2011 bis 2017 Professor für Wirtschafts- und Sozialgeschichte des Mittelalters an der Universität Wien. Seit Oktober 2018 lehrt er an der Freien Universität Berlin die Geschichte des hohen und späten Mittelalters. Dr. Barbara Karl ist Kuratorin der Sammlung des Textilmuseums St.Gallen (CH). Der Schwerpunkt ihrer Forschungen und Publikationen widmet sich Textilien und Sammlungsgeschichte vor dem Hintergrund des intranationalen kulturellen Austauschs der frühen Neuzeit bis ins 19. Jahrhundert. Thomas Ertl war von 2011 bis 2017 Professor für Wirtschafts- und Sozialgeschichte des Mittelalters an der Universität Wien.
