This open access book analyses the practice of banishment and what it can tell us about the values of late medieval society concerning morally acceptable behaviour. It focuses on the Dutch town of Kampen and considers the exclusion of offenders through banishment and the redemption of individuals after their exile. Banishment was a common punishment in late medieval Europe, especially for sexual offences. In Kampen it was also meted out as a consequence of the non-payment of fines, after which people could arrange repayment schemes which allowed them to return. The books firstly considers the legal context of the practice of banishment, before discussing punishment in Kampen more generally. In the third chapter the legal practice of banishment as a punitive and coercive measure is discussed. The final chapter focuses on the redemption of exiles, either because their punishment was completed, or because they arranged for the payment of outstanding fines.

The Middle Dutch term schaec referred to abduction with marital intent. This book explores this phenomenon to understand wider attitudes towards marriage-making in the fifteenth-century Low Countries. Whilst exchanging words of consent was all that was required legally, making marriage was a social process that evoked public concern and familial scrutiny. Abductions embodied contrasting evaluations of what mattered when selecting a spouse and resulted in polarized trials in which narratives on consent, coercion, and family strategy coincided and competed. Abduction, Marriage, and Consent draws from a wide range of legal records to assess how men, women, families, and authorities used, navigated, and dealt with abductions during this period. It contributes to debates on consent, family involvement, and women's access to justice and demonstrates that abduction should be approached as a comprehensive social phenomenon, one that is crucial in the history of marriage and women's social and legal status.

Depuis une vingtaine d'années, la grâce a pris une place de choix dans le paysage de l'histoire de la justice à la fin du Moyen Âge et aux débuts de l'époque moderne. Tirant parti de sources d'une grande richesse, les historiens ont montré que la clémence est le complément indispensable de la sévérité dans l'exercice de la justice du XIIIe au XVIIe siècle. Ils ont ainsi nuancé l'image d'une justice médiévale expéditive et sanguinaire. Mieux, ils ont montré que si l'intransigeance des juges est affirmée dans les textes normatifs, la pratique judiciaire se fonde plus sur l'exercice du pardon que sur la force du bourreau. Par ailleurs, l'historiographie récente a mis en avant la manière dont les pratiques de grâce sont un instrument politique de la croissance de l'État et de l'affirmation de sa souveraineté. À travers les huit contributions de ce volume, de jeunes chercheurs en histoire analysent cette place déterminante de la grâce dans la justice médiévale et moderne.
