| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project is designed to examine the overlaps of the ‘formal’ and ‘informal’ spheres of pre-modern English towns with reference to their civic institutions, commerce, and societies. The main objective of the research is to highlight the neglected patterns of political, economic and social relationships in an urban context, based on relevant literature surveys and an analysis of primary sources. Case studies include an analysis of English hospitals and almshouses, the results of which have been published as an article, ‘The transformation of poor relief and caring facilities in medieval England: a history of urban hospitals’, The Keizai Gaku, Annual Report of Economic Society, vol. 76, 2017, by Professor Yoh Kawana.
