Abstract

Drawing on hitherto unpublished sources James Casey explores two major themes in Spanish historiography - the consequences of the expulsion of the Moriscos (heavily concentrated in Valencia in the early seventeenth century), and the way in which the Habsburg Monarchy kept or lost control over its peripheral provinces. The study ranges widely over questions of population (including a pioneering attempt for early modern Spain at family reconstitution), landholding and agriculture, exploring the links between depopulation and economic decline - twin phenomena which characterized the peninsula in the age of Spain's decline. Dr Casey has drawn on a variety of previously neglected sources - parish registers, tithe records, cadastral surveys - in order to quantify these developments as far as possible. The result is a reassessment of the chronology and extent of economic recession in one of Spain's most fertile provinces, and a revision of some ideas about the importance of the expulsion of the Moriscos.

Abstract

OECD's Territorial Review of the Valencian Central Districts of Spain. It finds that the future of the region in an era of globalisation is uncertain. At a time when producer services are becoming critical to the success of goods producing industries, will the small settlements that characterise the Valencian Central Districts be able to maintain their competitive position? And should they find new forms of partnership in order to increase their capacity to make investments? The aim of this Territorial Review is to provide practical policy advice on how the area can respond to new challenges by enhancing potential opportunities.

Abstract

Cet ouvrage éclaire d’un jour nouveau la spécificité du royaume de Valence dans l’Espagne des Habsbourgs du début du règne de Philippe II aux Cortès de 1626. Après avoir brossé le panorama des institutions valenciennes, Conseil d’Aragon, Audience, vice-roi, gouverneurs, bailes généraux, maestre racional, l’auteur étudie les carrières de l’ensemble des officiers et des agents ayant exercé leurs fonctions dans cet appareil. Il rompt ainsi avec une tradition prosoprographique qui consiste à séparer les individus d’un même corps ou d’un même groupe professionnel. Cette approche novatrice permet de procéder à une analyse comparative des modalités des carrières des officiers du royaume de Valence. En outre, l’étude des liens de parenté de ces officiers royaux met en évidence les différentes modalités d’insertion dans des réseaux de solidarité qui dépassent le cadre institutionnel valencien. Cette étude, qui ouvre des voies méthodologiques nouvelles, constitue une référence indispensable pour la nouvelle historiographie du pouvoir politique dans l’Espagne d’Ancien régime.

Abstract

This first major study of tax structure in pre-Renaissance Spain gives new insight into the condition of the conquered people of postcrusade Valencia. Drawing on tax records, it provides the reader with a fascinating glimpse of life among the thirteenth century Mudejars. By showing the financial links between a medieval ethnic enclave and the dominant society, the author illuminates aspects of intergroup relations that have previously been neglected. This volume is the second in the author's trilogy on Muslim society in Eastern Spain.Originally published in 1976.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
