Abstract
The article is the review and analysis of the book written by a well-known English medievalist Miri Rubin about the perception and politics towards strangers in the European medieval towns. The author tries to demonstrate the multitude of approaches and attitudes that can be found in different towns and regions, but at the same time she also determines common features and development tendencies for this policy. The position of two categories of strangers – Jews and women – is more profoundly explored.
