| Zusammenfassung: | For more than one hundred years, from the last decade of the thirteenth century to the late fourteenth, Paris was the only western European town north of the Mediterranean basin to produce luxury silk cloth. What was the nature of the Parisian silk industry? How did it get there? And what do the answers to these questions tell us? According to Sharon Farmer, the key to the manufacture of silk lies not just with the availability and importation of raw materials but with the importation of labor as well. Farmer demonstrates the essential role that skilled Mediterranean immigrants played in the formation of Paris's population and in its emergence as a major center of luxury production. She highlights the unique opportunities that silk production offered to women and the rise of women entrepreneurs in Paris to the very pinnacles of their profession. The Silk Industries of Medieval Paris illuminates aspects of intercultural and interreligious interactions that took place in silk workshops and in the homes and businesses of Jewish and Italian pawnbrokers. Drawing on the evidence of tax assessments, aristocratic account books, and guild statutes, Farmer explores the economic and technological contributions that Mediterranean immigrants made to Parisian society, adding new perspectives to our understanding of medieval French history, luxury trade, and gendered work |

What was the nature of the Parisian silk industry? How did it get there? And what do the answers to these questions tell us? According to Sharon Farmer, the key to the manufacture of silk lies not just with the availability and importation of raw materials but with the importation of labor as well. Farmer demonstrates the essential role that skilled Mediterranean immigrants played in the formation of Paris's population and in its emergence as a major center of luxury production. She highlights the unique opportunities that silk production offered to women and the rise of women entrepreneurs in Paris to the very pinnacles of their profession. The Silk Industries of Medieval Paris illuminates aspects of intercultural and interreligious interactions that took place in silk workshops and in the homes and businesses of Jewish and Italian pawnbrokers. Drawing on the evidence of tax assessments, aristocratic account books, and guild statutes, Farmer explores the economic and technological contributions that Mediterranean immigrants made to Parisian society, adding new perspectives to our understanding of medieval French history, luxury trade, and gendered work Geschichte 1200-1500 gnd rswk-swf History Medieval and Renaissance Studies Immigrants France Paris History To 1500 Silk industry France Paris History To 1500 Silk manufacturers France Paris History To 1500 Migration (DE-588)4120730-0 gnd rswk-swf Technologie (DE-588)4059276-5 gnd rswk-swf Kulturaustausch (DE-588)4165964-8 gnd rswk-swf Seidenindustrie (DE-588)4194787-3 gnd rswk-swf Paris (DE-588)4044660-8 gnd rswk-swf Paris (DE-588)4044660-8 g Seidenindustrie (DE-588)4194787-3 s Technologie (DE-588)4059276-5 s Kulturaustausch (DE-588)4165964-8 s Migration (DE-588)4120730-0 s Geschichte 1200-1500 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-0-8122-4848-7 (DE-604)BV043717626 https://doi.org/10.9783/9780812293319 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
