HANSEATIC LEAGUE – HISTORY & CIVILIZATION

Author: Athanasios Kouzelis

”It was during my first university student years that for the first time, following the curiosity of our ancient seafarer Pytheas, I visited coastal cities of the North Sea and Baltic. There, thanks to the knowledge of the European history of culture, which I had been taught, I saw important monuments, quite neglected by the historiography of culture, of about the same time that the Renaissance flourished in medieval Italy. After much searching, I then decided to write a book in which I would present the attractively unusual culture of the Hanseatic League, which emerged as the first institutionalized northern European trade association.”
