Sinopsis

Medieval Markets explores how the exchange of goods shaped medieval societies, economies, and urban landscapes. It delves into the daily operations of these marketplaces, highlighting the roles of merchants, artisans, and the goods traded. These markets weren't just about economics; they were social hubs that fueled urban growth by attracting migration and influencing town planning. Intriguingly, the book reveals how markets fostered specialization, transforming rudimentary settlements into bustling centers of medieval life.

 
The book examines markets' influence on social mobility, cultural exchange, and wealth distribution, challenging the view of the Middle Ages as a static, agrarian society. Medieval Markets is structured in three parts, progressing from the fundamentals of market operations to their impact on urban development and broader societal implications. By emphasizing the social dimensions of economic activity, the book provides a nuanced understanding of how markets functioned as social and cultural hubs, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in medieval history, economic history, and urban studies.

Orienting - An Indian in Japan

Pallavi Aiyar

How is Tokyo, a city of thirty million people, so safe that six-year-old children commute to school on their own? Why are there no trashcans in Japanese cities? Why are Ganesha idols in Japanese temples hidden from public view? Globe-trotting journalist Pallavi Aiyar moves to Japan and takes an in-depth look at the island country including its culinary, sanitary and floral idiosyncrasies. Steering through the many (mis)adventures that come from learning a new language, imbibing new cultural etiquette, and asking difficult questions about race, Aiyar explores why Japan and India find it hard to work together despite sharing a long civilizational history. Part travelogue, part reportage, Orienting answers questions that have long confounded the rest of the world with Aiyar's trademark humour. Tackling both the significant and the trivial, the quirky and the quotidian, here is an Indian's account of Japan that is as thought-provoking as it is charming.
