Promotional Details
"This set of texts represents a very necessary and fresh updating to the issue of urban life and urban development in Iberia. The work closes with a final balance of the volume coordinator, in which Panzram highlights the need to rewrite Iberian history from an urban perspective, an endeavour to which the reviewed work prominently contributes. It is likewise noteworthy, to conclude, the excellent quality of the edition, significantly enriched with a highly remarkable set of color maps, figures, and pictures providing the reader with very useful tools in order to gain a better understanding of different places and historical realities described in the book". Alejandro García Sanjuán, in Sehepunkte, 20 (2), 2020.

This erudite collection of eight essays, bookended by remarks from Panzram (Univ. of Hamburg, Germany), covers the cities of the Iberian peninsula from the Roman and Visigothic periods through the 18th century. [...] Maintaining a high standard of scholarship, this collection would be at home in any academic or research library, particularly those with collections on the history and culture of cities, and the history of Iberia. Summing Up: Recommended". D. C. Kierdorf, in Choice, 57 (1), June 2020.
