DESCRIPTION:An interesting feature of the recent scholarship on preindustr
 ial wages is that its heated debates do not fall neatly along disciplinary
  lines. Economists disagree on what information about compensation of manu
 al labor should be included in indexes of living standards. Historians\, f
 or their part\, can be more or less skeptical about all wage series. My pa
 per sidesteps these debates and argues for the need to focus on wage diffe
 rentials rather than modal or median wages. It analyses a series of hiring
  contracts signed in Murano (Venice) between 1638 and 1696 in order to int
 erpret the role of individual productivity and collective bargaining in pr
 oducing the remarkable wage differentials observed among highly skilled wo
 rkers employed in the glass industry of the period.\nSpeakers:\nProfessor 
 Francesca Trivellato (Institute for Advanced Study\, Princeton)

DESCRIPTION:\nStatus: This talk has been cancelled\nThis talk revisits the
  links between medieval and modern antisemitism by discussing the fears ge
 nerated in European Christian societies first by forced baptisms and later
 \, by the granting of citizenship rights to Jews – two phenomena that th
 reatened to dissolve clear and identifiable boundaries between Christians 
 and Jews. It connects these fears to religious and economic changes across
  three epochs: the Middle Ages\, the Counter-Reformation\, and the post-Em
 ancipation period. Overall\, it shows how the expansion of private financi
 al markets reproduced new and old antisemitic tropes by raising the specte
 r of Jewish “invisibility.” \n\nIf you have any queries\, please get i

 welcome - refreshments to follow\n\nSpeakers:\nProfessor Francesca Trivell
