Family property as capital in the form of houses, land, movables, financial assets, and rights were of great importance in the past. Arrangements of such property were characterised by a high degree of negotiating competence but likewise they entailed competition between the parties involved and were highly conflict prone. Fifteen contributors from Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, and the UK address different marital property regimes in relation to the practices and legal regulations of inheritance patterns with consideration to inter-familial negotiation, conflict, and resolution.    Contributors are: Marie-Pierre Arrizabalaga, Laura Casella, Isabelle Chabot, Siglinde Clementi, Simona Feci, Ellinor Forster, Andrea Griesebner, Christian Hagen, Margareth Lanzinger, Janine Maegraith, Silvia Mattivi, Beatrice Moring, Craig Muldrew, Regina Schäfer, and Georg Tschannett.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments  List of Tables and Graphs  Notes on Contributors    1 Families and Property: Stipulating, Litigating, Mediating    Margareth Lanzinger, Janine Maegraith, Siglinde Clementi, Ellinor Forster, and Christian Hagen    PART 1  Differentiated Patterns    2 The Exclusion of Women from Inheritance Rights: An Unresolved Issue?    Simona Feci    3 Inheritance Disputes from Ingelheim Court Records on the Threshold of the Early Modern Period (Fourteenth to Fifteenth Centuries)    Regina Schäfer    4 Landed Property, Power, and Female Old Age Security in the Nordic Countries    Beatrice Moring    5 Negotiating Inheritance in the Western Pyrenees in the Nineteenth Century – Gender Differentiated Treatment and Destinies    Marie-Pierre Arrizabalaga    PART2  Spaces of Transition    6 After the Plague: Women, Marriage, and Property in Trento during the Second Half of the Fourteenth Century    Silvia Mattivi    7 Along Family Line and Next of Kin: Negotiating and Safeguarding Dowries and Inheritance in Late Medieval Tyrol    Christian Hagen    8 Gender Imbalance in the Use, Ownership, and Transmission of Property in Early Modern Southern Tyrolean Urban and Rural Contexts    Janine Maegraith    PART 3  Social Spaces – Legal Cultures: Patricians and Nobles    9 Family Justice and Public Justice in Dowry and Inheritance Conflicts between Florentine Families (Fourteenth to Fifteenth Centuries)    Isabelle Chabot    10 Border Patrimonies: The Transmission and Claiming of Property in Women’s Everyday Writings in Sixteenth to Eighteenth-Century Friuli    Laura Casella    11 A Dispute over Guardianship: The Trentino-Tyrolean Noble Trapp Family between 1641 and 1656    Siglinde Clementi    PART 4  Urban and Rural Spaces: Ascribing and Defending Property, Bequests, and Occupation    12 Little to Leave: Labourers’ Goods and the Probate Process in Early Modern England    Craig Muldrew    13 Property, Power, Gender: Conflicts and Agency of a “Merchantess” in the Archduchy of Austria below the Enns in the Eighteenth Century    Andrea Griesebner    14 After Divorce: Disputes about Property and the Division of Wealth in the Context of Divorce from Bed and Board (Vienna, 1783–1850)    Georg Tschannett    Epilogue    15 Wealth in Its Diverse Meanings and Contexts – Concluding Comment    Margareth Lanzinger    Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210818707799,"sku":"9789004454187","price":132.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/negotiations-of-gender-and-property-through-legal-regimes-14th-19th-century-stipulating-litigating-mediating-9789004454187","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
