oppressed classes all over 2estern Europe *ere undermining the

feudal s)stem and creating a state of affairs in *hich there *as less

and less room for the feudal lords, rue in the countr)side the

feudalit) might still assert itself torturing the serfs flourishing on

their s*eat riding do*n their crops ravishing their *ives and

daughters, !ut cities *ere rising ever)*here: in 5tal) in 0outhern

France and on the $hine the old $oman municipalities *ere

6erman) the) *ere ne* creations, 5n all cases the) *ere ringed b)

these *alls and moats medieval craft production guild-bound and

for trade *ith other cities and *ith the rest of the *orld arose; and

graduall) *ith the need there also arose the means of protecting this

trade,

As earl) as the fifteenth centur) the to*nspeople pla)ed a more

crucial role in societ) than the feudalit), o be sure it *as still true

that agriculture occupied the largest proportion of the population and

thus remained the chief mode of production, 7evertheless the fe*

isolated free peasants *ho had managed to hold out here and there

against the rapaciousness of the nobles *ere ade3uate proof that it *as

the *or of the peasants and not the sloth and oppression of the nobles

*hich made the crops gro*,

At the same time the needs of the nobilit) itself had so increased

and changed that even the) could not do *ithout the cities: after all it

*as in the cities that the noble obtained his o*n special "tools"  

armour and *eapons, #omestic te9tiles furniture and ornament

soap he had to bu) from the to*nspeople, A certain degree of 

international trade had alread) developed: the 5talians sailed the

(editerranean and along the Atlantic oast as far north as Flanders; in

the face of increasing English and #utch competition the <anseatic

eague continued to dominate the 7orth 0ea and the !altic 0ea; the

connection bet*een the trade centres of the 0outh and those of the

 7orth *as overland on roads *hich passed through 6erman), hus

and more obstructive to progress the to*nspeople *ere coming to

form the class *hich embodied the further development of production

and commerce of education and of social and political institutions,

.udged b) toda)=s standards all these advances in production and

e9change *ere of a ver) limited scope, roduction remained confined

*ithin the pattern of guild craftsmanship and thus itself retained

feudal characteristics; trade continued to be restricted to European

*aters and did not venture farther than the coastal cities of the evant

5n this situation the urban citi?enr) had a might) *eapon against

feudalism: mone), here *as scarcel) room for mone) in the t)pical

feudal econom) in the earl) (iddle Ages, he lord obtained

ever)thing he needed from his serfs either in the form of services or 

in the form of finished products, Fla9 and *ool *ere spun *oven into

cloth and made into clothing b) the serfs= *omen; the man tilled the

fields and the children tended the lord=s cattle and gathered for him the

fruits of the forest bird-nests fire*ood; in addition the *hole famil)

had to deliver up grain fruit eggs butter cheese poultr) calves and

*ho no*s ho* much else, Each feudal domain *as sufficient unto

itself; even feudal militar) obligations *ere taen in ind; trade and

e9change *ere absent and mone) *as superfluous, Europe had

declined to so lo* a level had retrogressed so far that mone) at this

time served far less a social function than it did a political: it *as used

for the pa)ment of ta9es and *as ac3uired chiefl) b) robber),

All that had changed b) the fifteenth centur), (one) *as again

circulation *as much greater than it had been, Even the noble needed

it no* and since he had little or nothing to sell since also banditr) had

urban mone)-lender, ong before the ramparts of the baronial castles

districts *here as in <olland !elgium and along the lo*er $hine the

 peasants paid mone) instead of goods and services to their overlords;

*here master and man had taen the first decisive steps in the

direction of becoming lando*ner and tenant; and *here conse3uentl)

even in the countr)side the political institutions of feudalism began to

lose their social basis,

<o* deepl) the foundations of the feudalit) had been *eaened and

its structure corroded b) mone) around the end of the fifteenth

centur) is striingl) evident in the lust for gold *hich possessed

2estern Europe at this time, 5t *as gold that the ortuguese sought on

the African coast in 5ndia and the *hole Far East; gold *as the magic

*ord *hich lured the 0paniards over the ocean to America; gold *as

the first thing the *hites ased for *hen the) set foot on a ne*l)

 been an increase in those elements in the population rural as *ell as

fighting should stop that there should be an end to the feuds among

the lords *hich produced a perpetual state of domestic *arfare even

 purposeless devastation *hich had lasted throughout the entire (iddle

Ages should cease, hough these elements *ere still too *ea to

impose their o*n *ill the) found a sturd) support at the ver) top of 

the feudal heap: the monarch), And it is at this point that anal)sis of 

social relations leads to consideration of the relations *ithin and

among states; here is *here *e proceed from economics to politics,

he ne* nationalities had arisen graduall) out of the confusion of 

 peoples *hich characteri?ed the earl) (iddle Ages, his is a process

in *hich as is *ell no*n the con3uered assimilated the con3uerors

in the once $oman provinces; the peasants and to*nspeople absorbed

the 6ermanic masters, (odern nationalities are thus the creations of 

the oppressed classes, (ene=s district map of central orraine [1] gives

us a clear picture of the manner in *hich here a mi9ing there a sorting

out too place, Cne need onl) follo* the line *hich divides the

6erman from the $oman place names in order to convince oneself that

this line in !elgium and lo*er orraine ver) nearl) coincides *ith the

linguistic boundar) bet*een 6erman and French as it e9isted as late as

the last 3uarter of the 18th centur), <ere and there a small area could

 be found in *hich predominance of language *as still a matter of dispute, !ut b) and large the dispute had alread) been settled and

*hich area should remain 6erman *hich $oman had been

established, he Cld o*er Franish and Cld <igh 6erman forms of 

most place names on the map go to prove ho*ever that the) belong to

one of these for e9ample the ud*igslied originated at the end of the

language of France on the oath formulas of the ings and notables in

and it changed in man) aspects simultaneousl), 5n England the
