| Riassunto: | How could the presence of robust nuclei of wealth be reconciled in Italian city-communes with the government of a popular “res publica” which was intended to be based on social peace? What were the effects of the anti-magnates law for the purposes of disciplining families accustomed to grabbing available resources, even with violent methods, and exercising economic and political powers aiming exclusively at their own gain? And how was this dialectic revealed in the political lexicon of contemporaries and in the public reputation of the magnates? The contribution intends to answer these questions on the basis of a historical historiographical reflection and of some case studies that are rooted in the identified chronological framework (last decades of the thirteenth century-first decade of the fourteenth century). |
