Ropas de ocasión y difusión de las modas en la Valencia del siglo XV
Get PDFThe development of a complex second-hand market in a large city such as Valencia in the Late Middle Ages is used here to analyse the clothing sector, and to establish how, and by what means, trading in already worn clothes served to bring the new fashions that were emerging from the mid-14th century onwards to wider sectors of the population. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to evaluate the importance of the flea market in the diffusion of a certain consumerist spirit when the productive forces had not yet developed sufficiently to supply these new demands.El desarrollo de un complejo mercado de segunda mano en una gran ciudad como fue Valencia en la Baja Edad Media sirve aquí para analizar el sector de la indumentaria y establecer cómo, y por qué vías, esas compraventas de ropas usadas sirvieron para hacer llegar a sectores más amplios de la población las nuevas modas que se iban imponiendo desde mediados del siglo XIV. Se trata por tanto de evaluar la importancia del mercado de ocasión en la difusión de un cierto espíritu consumista cuando todavía las fuerzas productivas no se habían desarrollado lo suficiente como para satisfacer esas nuevas demandas
La cultura materiale del trapasso. Il funerale del basileus e la teologia del potere nella Costantinopoli della corte macedone

La implantación del notariado público en el reino de Murcia (1256-1305)
Get PDFThe introduction of public notaries in the Kingdom of Murcia is an interesting example of the model by which the profession was rapidly established, typical of the recently conquered territories in the Iberian Peninsula during the thirteenth century, that was studied for the cases of Seville, Cordoba, Valencia and Majorca. Through an analysis of the legislation and the notarial documents preserved, we seek to analyse the parallels and divergences regard to those other cases in the peninsula, the particular characteristics arising from the mixture of repopulation groups from both the Crown of Castile and the Crown of Aragon, and the adaptation of public notaries to the political changes that occurred in the Kingdom of Murcia in the thirteenth century.La implantación del notariado público en el reino de Murcia es un interesante ejemplo del modelo de rápido establecimiento del oficio ex novo, propio de los territorios recién conquistados en la Península Ibérica durante el siglo XIII, el cual fue estudiado para los casos de Sevilla, Córdoba, Valencia y Mallorca. Mediante el análisis de la legislación y de los documentos notariales conservados, pretendemos analizar los paralelismos y las divergencias con esos otros casos peninsulares, las características particulares de la mezcla de contingentes repobladores procedentes tanto de la Corona de Castilla como de la Corona de Aragón y la adaptación del notariado público a los cambios políticos acaecidos en el reino de Murcia durante el siglo XIII
El real de plata de Pedro I de Castilla. Entre el prestigio y la necesidad (c. 1363-1369)
Get PDFOne of the great questions in the history of medieval currency in Castile is the date of the appearance of the silver real and the circumstances surrounding it. A single document issued in the time of Pedro I demostrates its existence, to which can be added to another solitary mention present in the chronicle of his reign drawn by Pero López de Ayala. We also have other evidence about the hoarding of silver, in the form of the form of coins or ingots, by the Castilian monarch. These written sources are supplemented by a comparative study of the real with the gros tournois, the French silver coin of the time. All these references allow us to provide an approximate date for the first issue.Uno de los grandes interrogantes de la historia de la moneda medieval en Castilla es el momento de la aparición del real de plata y las circunstancias que la rodean. Un único documento emitido en tiempos de Pedro I avala su existencia que se añade a otra solitaria mención presente en la crónica de su reinado elaborada por Pero López de Ayala. Disponemos también de otras noticias sobre el atesoramiento de plata, en monedas o en lingotes, por el monarca castellano. Estas fuentes escritas se complementan con el estudio comparado del real con el gros tornés, la moneda francesa de plata del momento. Todas estas referencias nos permiten ofrecer una fecha aproximada de su primera acuñación
Una seconda chance per le persone e per le cose. I pegni consegnati ai Monti di Pietà alla fine del Medioevo: casi
Get PDFThe Monte di Pietà, a public citizen bank active in Italy since 1462, implemented the cardinal principles of the circular economy: to make products as durable and efficient as possible and, consequently, to reduce waste by also upgrading assets that apparently could no longer be used. The Monte received garments from the “poorest of the poor” and in return granted them some credit money. This offered the Monti’s clients and objects a second chance and prevented those who were in a situation of distress from ending up in a state of irretrievable poverty.Il Monte di Pietà, banca pubblica cittadina in funzione in Italia a partire dal 1462, realizzava i principi cardine dell’economia circolare: rendere i prodotti quanto più possibile duraturi ed efficienti e conseguentemente ridurre i rifiuti valorizzando anche beni apparentemente non più fruibili che possono invece essere considerati ancora impiegabili. Il Monte accoglieva pegni (frequentemente capi di abbigliamento) dai “poveri meno poveri” e in cambio accordava un piccolo credito. Ciò dava ai clienti dei Monti e agli oggetti consegnati in pegno una seconda chance ed evitava che chi si trovava in difficoltà precipitasse in un irrimediabile stato di povertà
