Learning from Other Cities? Interurban Exchange from the Late Medieval to the Modern Period
Workshop organized by Brendan Röder, 10-11 September, 2026
01.09.2026
Historians working on a specific city regularly encounter documents exchanged between urban centers – such as guild regulations, ordinances, infrastructural plans or even constitutional documents – but rarely place them at the center of analysis. This workshop does exactly that and focuses on the themes, actors, and functions of exchange between cities across a broad chronological range.
Participants include Vincent Demont (Paris), Edda Frankot (Utrecht), Philip Hahn (Saarbrücken), Christian Manger (Tilburg), Anna Mazanik (Max Weber Stiftung, Bonn), Franziska Neumann (Braunschweig), Richard Olivier (Fribourg), Maarten Prak (Utrecht), Andrew Wells (Kiel).
The workshop takes place at the Center for Advanced Studies, Seestraße 13, 80802 Munich
