Reconnaître et délimiter l’espace localement au Moyen Âge
This is a welcome collection clearly focused on the delineation of local space in urban and regional medieval contexts. Attentive especially to French, Portuguese and Catalonian examples, the chapters together offer a number of case-studies that demonstrate clearly the precise yet diverse means of shaping boundaries during (mostly) the high Middle Ages. The collection, edited by Nacima Baron, Stéphane Boissellier, François Clément and Flocel Saba…
O Damietta’
The Egyptian port city of Damietta was a place which occupied a brief but important position in the crusading imaginary of the thirteenth century.

In this manner, inquisitors were more generally concerned to mark out the boundaries of heretical and anti- heretical behaviours, in order to encourage confession and penitence. I also suggested that the same space of imprisonment could be appropriated by prisoners a…
