Short abstract

By assembling studies on the projection of maritime cities' governance at sea and

boundaries in Late Medieval Western Europe, delving into the different levels
of urban agency at sea.

Keywords: Sea government, sea power, urban jurisdiction, urban agency, cities'
intervention at sea


Topic(s)

Urban history, maritime history, medieval Europe history, political history, economic
history


Session content

Late medieval polities of Western Europe were marked by significant
compositeness, with cities and lordships possessing important autonomies and
broad jurisdictions. In this respect, scholarship has broadly acknowledged
the important role cities and municipalities played for the government of territories.
In particular – and in connection with governmental authorities – for
counterbalancing the power of medieval princes and lords operating in the localities.
Although this seems to be a common trait among Western European polities, each
context was marked by different balance, which in turn originated from their specific
political, social, and economic environment. In that regard, the specific role
of maritime cities with respect to governance at sea still needs to be fully
investigated.
