This book offers a multi-perspective view of the filiation of different colonial and settler colonial experiences, from the Medieval Iberian Peninsula to the early Modern Americas. All the articles in the volume refer the reader to colonial orders that extended over time, that substantially reduced indigenous populations, that imposed new productive strategies and created new social hierarchies. The ideological background and how conquests were organised; the treatment given to the conquered lands and people; the political organisations, and the old and new agricultural systems are issues discussed in this volume.

El naixement d’una colònia

Aquest llibre, Premi Ferran Soldevila (1997) en la seua versió original, situa la conquesta i la creació del regne de València en el context de l'expansió -predadora i migratòria- del sistema feudal europeu i de la lògica que l'animava, alhora que descriu la resistència del camperolat andalusí i la integració dels supervivents en el nou ordre colonial. L'anàlisi del domini catalanoaragonès a la frontera valenciana del segle XIII mostra, així, l'inici dels trets decisius del colonialisme europeu modern. Ara, s'edita la segona edició. On ne peut que conseiller la lecture de cet ouvrage intelligent qui n'hésite pas à remettre en question bien des idees reçues. II a force d'une d...

Hidráulica agraria y sociedad feudal

L'estudi de les pràctiques d'hidràulica agrària desenvolupades durant l'Edat Mitjana ha mostrat que no ens trobem davant fenòmens purament «etnogràfics» o solucions universals sense valor històric. En aquesta obra col·lectiva s'ofereixen, d'una banda, treballs representatius de regions on s'inicia l'expansió agrària en el marc de la cristal·lització del sistema feudal (Catalunya Vella, Llenguadoc, Borgonya) i, per un altre, diversos estudis sobre les transformacions produïdes en territori conquistats durant els segles XII (regió de Terol, vall del Segre), XIII (regne de València) i finals del XV (regne de Granada). A través de tots ells s'examina la diversitat de mitjans geogràfics (humits i àrids) on es despleguen tècniques hidràuliques aplicades al cultiu, els prats i la molineria.

James I "the Conqueror", king of Arago-Catalonia, conquered Mediterranean Spain from Islam during fifty crusading years (1225-1276). From his many surrender treaties, only two survive in their interlinear bilingual originals, both presented here. Each reflects the fragmentation of post-Almohad Islam, the warrior heroes of Islam carving recalcitrant principalities out of the confusion, the hard-fought local negotiations and the confrontation between two radically opposed mentalities. The full meaning of these battered and deteriorated bits of parchment emerges only from minute reconstruction of the Arabic and Latinate texts and especially from ever-widening circles of changing contexts in each world, an historical kaleidoscope. Many surprises here await students of medieval Europe, the Islamic West, Spain, the Crusades, diplomacy, Mudejars/Moriscos, and cultural conflict and interchange.
