Outcasts voiced their many grievances or searched for consolation in an intensely poignant literature. Drawing on a wide range of sources, this book traces the hitherto unwritten history of a "contrary commonwealth of exile from its open and collective resistance during the Middle Ages to its submission to Renaissance regimes that were forerunners of the modern state.
