It focuses on the Dutch town of Kampen and considers the exclusion of offenders through banishment and the redemption of individuals after their exile. Banishment was a common punishment in late medieval Europe, especially for sexual offences. In Kampen it was also meted out as a consequence of the non-payment of fines, after which people could arrange repayment schemes which allowed them to return. The books firstly considers the legal context of the practice of banishment, before discussing punishment in Kampen more generally. In the third chapter the legal practice of banishment as a punitive and coercive measure is discussed. The final chapter focuses on the redemption of exiles, either because their punishment was completed, or because they arranged for the payment of outstanding fines. 2021-12-13T18:55:24Z 2021-12-13T18:55:24Z 2022 book ONIX_20211213_9783030888671_18 9783030888671 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/51935 eng application/pdf n/a 978-3-030-88867-1.pdf https://link.springer.com/978-3-030-88867-1 Springer Nature Palgrave Macmillan 10.1007/978-3-030-88867-1 10.1007/978-3-030-88867-1 6c6992af-b843-4f46-859c-f6e9998e40d5 26228157-df6b-41f0-8ea3-a87239f851a1 9783030888671 Palgrave Macmillan 140 Bern [grantnumber unknown] Nord universitet Nord University open access
