The 14th century was the high-point of German mercenary activity in the service of Italian princes and cities. For the first time in 60 years, this study addresses the multifarious implications of this intriguing subject. On the basis of newly discovered sources, it analyzes the general parameters defining international mercenary service in 14th century Italy and describes the life-situations of German mercenaries in war and peacetime. Inquiry into the motives of the mercenaries extends the purview to their geographical origins north of the Alps.

Il monastero femminile di San Zaccaria di Venezia, fondato nel IX secolo, adotta intorno alla metà del XII secolo le consuetudini di Cluny. Questo contributo vuole dimostrare che la decisione, riconfermata più volte nel corso del tempo, contribuisce al rilancio del cenobio dopo un periodo di difficoltà, e anche se non comporta il formale collegamento del cenobio alla congregazione borgognona, lo proietta per la prima volta in una dimensione sovralocale. Tale proiezione è ben visibile circa cinquant'anni più tardi, quando le monache si presentano a Verona e trattano con il podestà e le autorità veronesi una questione patrimoniale che ha importantissime implicazioni di natura politico-territoriale per entrambe le città. ; The female monastery of San Zaccaria in Venice, founded during the 9th century, adopted the customs of Cluny around the mid-12th century. This paper aims to demonstrate that such a move, confirmed over and again, contributed to the revival of the monastery after a period of serious difficulty and, even if it did not imply the creation of a formal connection with the Burgundian congregation, the adoption of such customs projected San Zaccaria, for the first time, onto a supra-local dimension. This became clear some fifty years later, when the nuns went to Verona to discuss with the podestà, and all of the major city authorities, a patrimonial issue that proved to have relevant political and territorial implications for both cities.
Known from ancient authors such as Herodotus, Thucydides, and Plato, and more than 2,500 inscriptions, proxeny (a form of public guest-friendship) is the best attested interstate institution of the ancient world. This book offers a comprehensive re-examination of our evidence for this important Greek institution and uses it to examine the structure and dynamics of the interstate system of the Greek world, and the way in which these were transformed under the Roman Empire. Based on a detailed analysis of the function of the formulaic language of honorific decrees, this volume presents a new reconstruction of proxeny, and explores the way in which interstate institutions shaped the behaviour of individuals and communities in the ancient world. It draws on other material which has not been systematically exploited to reconstruct the proxeny networks of Greek city-states. This material reveals the extraordinary density of formal interconnections which characterized the ancient Greek world before the age of Augustus and reflected both trade and political contacts of different kinds. 0It also traces the disappearance of both proxeny and the broader institutional system of which it was part. Drawing on nuanced analysis of quantitative trends in the epigraphic record, it argues that the Greek world underwent a profound reorientation by the time of the Roman Principate, which fundamentally altered how Greek cities viewed relations with each other. Readership: For scholars and students interested in the history of ancient Greek institutions, epigraphy, ancient international relations, ancient Greek political structure, and the world of ancient Greece more generally
Alors que la lutte contre la pauvreté constitue une préoccupation renouvelée de nos sociétés contemporaines depuis le début du XXIe s., cet ouvrage collectif propose d'explorer différents visages de la pauvreté en Grèce ancienne. L'approche retenue ne privilégie pas, contrairement à ce qui a souvent été fait jusqu'ici, la réaction des cités et des citoyens devant la pauvreté et ne se concentre pas sur la question de l'assistanat ni de la charité mais interroge, sous l'impulsion des apports de la sociologie récente, l'existence de pratiques de pauvres, susceptibles de définir un groupe social. La question de la visibilité et des enjeux de la pauvreté est aussi au cœur de nombreuses contributions, avec tout particulièrement les représentations iconographiques de la pauvreté. Sans prétendre à l'exhaustivité, ce volume cherche à poser les premiers jalons d'une étude plus générale de la pauvreté dans l'Antiquité, qui ne réduise pas exclusivement le phénomène à une histoire des conflits sociaux, ni à une étude des disparités économiques, mais s'applique à revenir aux pauvres mêmes. = While the fight against poverty is a renewed concern in our contemporary society since the beginning of the XXIst century, this collective work aims to explore different aspects of poverty in Ancient Greece. The approach does not emphasize the response of cities and citizens to poverty and does not focus on the issue of the assistantship or charity unlike what has often been done so far. It rather questions thanks to the contributions of the recent sociology, the existence of poor pratice, likely to define a social group. The question of visibility and issues of poverty is at the heart of many papers, especially with the iconographic representations of poverty. Without claiming to be exhaustive, this volume aims to lay the groundwork for a more general study of poverty in Antiquity that will not only reduces the phenomenon to a history of social conflicts, or consideration of economic disparities but applies to focus on the poor themselves
