Wage Labor and Guilds in Medieval Europe, Steven A. Epstein
"Relying on a broad range of printed and secondary sources, Wage Labor and Guilds charts the history of guilds from their antecedents in the Roman Empire to their 'crisis' in the fourteenth century.... As a much-needed synthesis, [the book] will serve students well." - Speculum
"A thoughtful and wide-ranging contribution to the social and economic history of the High Medieval urban milieu.--Journal of Interdisciplinary History
"Interesting and comprehensive.... A major accomplishment." - Journal of Economic History
"Epstein takes a fresh look at the organization of labor in medieval towns and emphasizes the predominance of a wage system within them. He offers illuminating comment on a wide range of subjects - on guilds and guild organization, on women and Jews in the work force, on the value given labor, and on the sources of disaffection. His book presents a feast of themes in medieval social history." - David Herlihy, Brown University
Stephen A. Epstein, professor of history at the University of Colorado, Boulder, is author of Wills and Wealth in Medieval Genoa, 1150-1250.
