Framing Mediterranean Famine
The study of famine has long been a part of the broader historical literature on late medieval crisis, but until recently the anglophone literature on this subject has tended to focus on the experience of northern Europe. The present article examines two famine cycles in the city of Barcelona: one in the 1330s, the other in the 1370s. Using sources ranging from chronicles to municipal ordinances to royal correspondence, this article analyzes thes…
The Sea of Our City”
This article explores the issue of grain piracy during the famine year of 1333–1334 as a means to understanding the identity of medieval Barcelona within a broader Mediterranean context. At the same time that municipal authorities worked to prevent the theft of their own grain shipments, they used the famine as justification for their own piratical actions. The relationship between Barcelona and piracy underlines the independent political agency …

Later Medieval Law in Community Context
During the central and late Middle Ages, European lawmakers and jurists began to make intensive use of the principles of both Roman and canon law in their legislation and court decisions. Embedded in these legal principles were ideas about gender that would have a profound effect on litigation involving women. The substantive law that emerged during this legal renaissance helped to define women's place in medieval society, but equally important w…
The Measure of Woman
Drawing on hundreds of unpublished court records, Marie Kelleher examines how women in the fourteenth-century Crown of Aragon engaged with patriarchal assumptions to shape their own legal identities, thus playing a crucial role in the formation of a gendered legal culture that shaped women's lives throughout Europe for centuries afterwards

Gender in the Early Medieval World
Like man and wife’
Clerical concubinage was a persistent problem throughout the Middle Ages, but scholars have largely ignored the historical experience of the women involved. Parish visitation records from the early fourteenth-century diocese of Barcelona reveal a wealth of information about these women. Although their lives were in part circumscribed by an inherently gendered legal category, their day-to-day lives and interactions with other members of their comm…
