Market prices, the grain market and credit at the beginning of the 13th Century : considering a document from Rouen In 1209, a dispute over a manor opposed the Abbey of Saint-Amand de Rouen and the Priory of Bonne-Nouvelle. In a bid to resolve this, the two parties reached an agreement by which the Abbey gave up its rights to the manor and traded them for an annual allowance of grain. Reproduced in the form of a handwritten contract with indisputable corroborating marks, the establishment of an allowance, which is representative of 13th Century contracts at the diplomatic level, seems less conventional when one considers the clauses specifying how the annual payment is to be made. It implicitly highlights practices and a knowledge of the rules of the market, upon which, at the same time, scholarly thinkers rely for proposing a moral assessment of the economy, which will define the framework of economic practice until the end of the Middle Ages.
