Soprannomi di famiglia e segmenti di parentela in Liguria (secoli XVI-XX)
(Family nicknames and segments of kinship in Liguria [16th-20th centuries]) Family nicknames provide a useful tool to understand the inner structure of kinship during the ancient régime. This paper charts the ways in which collective nicknames were shaped and reshaped within a Ligurian village between the 16th and the 20th centuries. Such development is linked with the process of cohesion and disruption that runs through a hegemonic kinship from a demographic, economic and political point of view. According to our findings, far from being an essencially monolithic and solidaristic structure, kinship betrayes a complex inner configuration, and one made up of ruptures, alliances, conflicts and mediations among segments of competing kins. Recurring first names as further signs of identification of subkinship segments are also examined and the paper casts light upon the meaning of such segments in their relationship with the commons and usage of material resources, prerogatives and symbolic value. ; On this topic: Massimo Angelini: L'enigma Garibaldo - Invenzione della tradizione, parentele e comunanze in un villaggio rurale di antico regime.

L'hagiographie napolitaine du haut Moyen Âge: contexte, corpus et enjeux
FRANÇAIS: Les sources hagiographiques napolitaines des VIIIe-XIe siècles (textes liés aux cultes locaux et régionaux et adaptations latines de légendes orientales) sont d'abord situées dans l'ensemble des textes composés du VIe au début du XIVe siècle et dans le contexte de la cité et du duché, connu grâce à la documentation d'archives. Trois exemples montrent ensuite comment l'écriture hagiographique joue un rôle dans les enjeux de pouvoir, mais surtout religieux et culturels, qui marquent l'histoire de l'Italie et de l'Occident médiévaux. / ENGLISH: Neapolitan 8th-11th-century hagiographical sources (texts pertaining to local cults as well as Latin versions of Greek legends) are first replaced within the whole 6th-14th-century production and within the general context of the city and its duchy the charters enable the scholar to know. Three specific cases then prove how the writing of hagiography plays a part in the political, religious and cultural issues of medieval Italy and the medieval West as a whole.
