Somecross-sectionalstudiesonthesubjecthavealsobeenpublishedinrecentyears.19Most recently,TerjeTvedtandTerjeOestigaardhavebrought togethermanyof these inacomprehen- siveanalysisof ‘Water inHistory’publishedinninevolumesbetween2006and2016. Itprovides adiachronichistorical andcomparativeperspectiveon thecomplex relationshipbetweenwater and society.20Onevolumeof this series dealswith the issueof ‘Water andUrbanization’.21 The study aims at understanding the relationship between water and the urban environment by differentiating three aspects: the natural waterscape, humanmodifications of thewaterscape, and ideas and managerial concepts of water.22 Consequently, this study follows a relatively technical understandingof the relationbetweenwater andurbanity. Here, instead,we focus on the social and cultural production of urban spaces. One theoretical milestone for suchanapproachwasdevelopedbyHenri Lefebvre.23Hestarts fromtheassump- LiteraturMainz <http://opac.regesta-imperii.de/lang_de/> (01.08. 2019),MonumentaGermaniaeHistorica <http:// www.mgh.de/bibliothek/opac/> (29.07. 2019), International Medieval Bibliography <http://apps.brepolis.​ net/ Brepolis​ Portal/default.aspx> (29.07. 2019), International BibliographyofHumanismand theRenaissance <https:// www.droz.org/fr/13-bihr> (29.07. 2019). 7Wikander 2000;Wawrzinek 2014; on infrastructural networks: Hodge 1991; Hodge 1992; Crouch 1993; De Kleijn 2001; Jansen 2000; Jansen 2002; Tutthas 2007; Dessales 2013; see also the volumes ‘Geschichte derWasserversor- gung’ published by the Frontinus-Gesellschaft; BayerischeGesellschaft für Unterwasserarchäologie 2011; Lee 2014; Shulman2018;Zuchowska2012.Seealso thePriorityProgramm‘HäfenvonderRömischenKaiserzeitbiszumMittel- alter’by theGermanResearchCouncil <http://www.spp-haefen.de/> (16.08.2019); vonCarnap-Bornheimetal. 2018. 8 Abibliography onbaths:Manderscheid 2004; latrinae, e.g.: Neudecker 1994; Kosso– Scott 2009; Jansen et al. 2011;Hoss 2018. 9 Horden – Purcell 2000; Concannon –Mazurek 2016; see the ERC project ‘Portus Limen’ <https://portuslimen.​ eu/> (02.08. 2019); harbour studies: Blackman 2008; Rickman 2008; Feuser 2009; Salomon et al. 2016; harbour towns: Steuernagel 2004; Ladstätter et al. 2014. 10 Bartlomeet al. 1999; Classen 2019; Else 2019; Ingate 2019;Kiss 2019;Nigro 2018;Rothauser 2009. 11 Abel 2017; Blackman2001; Peachin 2004;Wiplinger–Letzner 2017; Costlowet al. 2017. 12Wikander 2000;Wilson 2008;Mays 2010; Kreiner – Letzner 2012; Zhuang–Altaweel 2018; see especially the volumes of conference series held by theDeutscheWasserhistorischeGesellschaft, e.g.Wellbrock 2017; Squatriti 2000. 13 Poulsen–Gundersen 2019;Wikander 2000. 14 Bradley–Stow2012; Röber 2016. 15 Huber-Rebenich et al. 2017. 16 Dorl-Klingenschmid2001;Dorl-Klingenschmid2006;Schmölder-Veit 2009;Longfellow2011;Richard 2012; För- ster –Bauch 2015; Shilling–Stephenson 2016. 17 Glaser 2000a;Glaser 2000b;Grüner 2006;Grüner 2009;Dessales 2013; Staub 2013. 18 Rostowzew1911; Kowalewski 1992; Pensa 1998. 19 Fabris et al. 2018;Holt 2018; Sulas–Pikirayi 2018. 20 <https://terjetvedt.w.uib.no/a-history-of-water/> (02.08. 2019). 21 Tvedt–Oestigaard 2014a. 22 Tvedt–Oestigaard 2014b, 3. 23 Lefebvre 1974.
