Las Ciudades de la Edad Media' by Henri Pirenne is a profound analysis of urban development during the Middle Ages. Pirenne argues that the Germanic invasions did not interrupt the economic unity of the Roman Empire, but rather it was the Muslim expansion that caused a decline in trade. This book offers a valuable perspective on the economic and social history of Europe.

Henri Pirenne was a Belgian nationalist and historian. A medievalist of Walloon descent, he wrote a multivolume history of Belgium in French and became a prominent public intellectual. Pirenne made a lasting contribution to the study of cities that was a controversial interpretation of the end of Roman civilization and the rebirth of medieval urban culture. He also became prominent in the nonviolent resistance to the Germans who occupied Belgium in World War I.
