NEW BOOK: COINS AND MONEY IN THE MIDDLE AGES

Coins and Money in the Middle Ages: Studies in Honor of Alan Stahl

Numismatic Studies No. 50

Edited by Merle Eisenberg, Lee Mordechai, and David Yoon

Alan Stahl's distinguished career in numismatics has encompassed a great many topics in the study of coins, monetary history, and medallic art, from antiquity through the Middle Ages and into the modern era. This volume brings together cutting-edge scholarship from three overlapping groups of scholars: former students from the American Numismatic Society Graduate Summer Seminar whom Stahl taught during the 1980s and 1990s; colleagues and former students at Princeton University, where he has taught since 2005; and collaborators in the Framing the Late Antique and Early Medieval Economy (FLAME) research project, which he has directed since 2014. The broad scope of the articles reveals how widely Stahl has influenced numismatics and numismatists over the last five decades through his research, teaching, and training of generations of students. Some articles focus on specific aspects of coinage, but far more show how thinking with coins, as a medium, transforms how scholars write the histories of the monetary world, economic life, and social relations. Like Stahl himself, the contributors to this volume go beyond technical numismatic details and place coins and money in a broader framework that helps transform our understanding of how people lived in the premodern world.
