Descripción

Georg L. K. a Christ delves into the intricate dynamics between Venetian merchants and Mamluk officials in late medieval Alexandria, shedding light on the economic and political tensions that characterized this vibrant trading hub. Through the examination of Mamluk and Venetian sources, the work reveals how these two powerful entities navigated their conflicting interests while engaging in commerce, diplomacy, and local governance.

The author intricately details the motivations behind their interactions, from economic gain to territorial control, and illustrates how these conflicts shaped the socio-political landscape of Alexandria during this period. By providing a comprehensive analysis of these historical exchanges, a Christ not only uncovers the complexities of trade in the medieval Mediterranean but also invites readers to reflect on the broader implications of conflict and cooperation in a globalized economy.
