How cloth production was carried out in silesia

While research about the circulation of cotton textiles within the Atlantic and the Indian Ocean is progressing and produced already remarkable insights, cloth or clothing made out of linen is mostly omitted in the analysis. Therefore, this paper set its focus on the – in relation to the Atlantic – “peripheral backcountry” of Silesia and its highly productive proto-industrial linen processing during the 18th century. Especially the conditions under which the rural population was producing the linen cloth will be central to the paper explaining why linens of Silesian origin were comparatively cheap. While exploring the monthly Journal of the “Schlesische Provinzialblätter” (first published in 1785) and an preserved urbarium (dating back to 1774) in which the rights and benefits of the landlord over his serfs and tenants were laid down, some conclusions about the “unfree” Silesian textile laborers and their contribution to the global cloth trade can be made.
