The Village and the Outside World in Golden Age Castile: Mobility and Migration in Everyday Rural Life
Vassberg, David E. (University of Texas Pan American)
This 1996 book shatters the disproven but persistent myth of the closed immobile village with sedentary populations in the early modern period. Professor Vassberg demonstrates through many fascinating case-studies that even in traditionalist Spain, villagers were highly migratory, and had frequent contact with the outside world.
