Abstract

The essay discusses Chris Wickham's recent monograph devoted to the origins of the commercial revolution of the Middle Ages. In addition to summarizing the salient arguments of the volume, this contribution would like to highlight the methodological, historiographical and cultural implications that lead the British scholar to almost completely overturn the traditional view of the Mediterranean economy in the 11th and 12th centuries.
