Items related to Pragmatic Utopias: Ideals and Communities, 1200–1630
Spanning the artificial divide between medieval and early modern history, this collection of essays shows how men and women tried to put their ideals into practice, sometimes alone, but more commonly within the shared environment of cloister, college or city. The volume is presented to the distinguished medievalist Barrie Dobson in celebration of his 70th birthday, and takes the reader from a rural landscape to the London of Thomas More, and from the forests of Robin Hood to the central law courts.

Review:
"The editors of this volume have done an admirable job--through judicious selection--of uniting their material as well as can be expected from a volumue of this nature, and the fifteen essays themselves are so engaging as to be seminal. All contributions are strong, and concise--rarely over a dozen pages, exclusive of notes--and many offer provocative insights that challenge our notions of historic categorization and stereotypes. ...a delightful book, and one deserving of multiple readings." Renaissance and Reformation
"Pragmatic Utopias is an impressive collection, marked by a tightly focused theme but illustrated by a wide range of studies. For scholars who recognize idealism and utopias as a feature of medieval society, this will be an indispensable collection." History
"[A] varied and rich collection." Renaissance Quarterly
"A rich collection...we are fortunate to have [it]." The Medieval Review
