SUMMARY
Schulte provides a new and original interpretation of village life in rural Europe through a close study of the court proceedings for the three most important rural crimes: arson, infanticide, and poaching. These court proceedings revealed the views, language, and symbolic gestures of the villagers and illustrate the conflict between traditional local culture and the increasing influence of new state institutions and modern social structures.Regina Schulte is the author of 'The Village in Court: Arson, Infanticide, and Poaching in the Court Records of Upper Bavaria 1848-1910', published 1994 under ISBN 9780521431866 and ISBN 0521431867.
