Dante’s Paradiso navigates a range of doctrinal and fictio iuris; Dante; Petrarca literary challenges to incorporate its blessed characters into the poem’s continuum of interlocutors. Although the Commedia culminates with a first-person, mystical experience, the structural importance of third-person voices to the canticle demonstrates the centrality of realist characterization to the overall project.

  • Political Conspiracy in Florence, 1340-1382 A
    POLITICAL CONSPIRACY IN FLORENCE, 1340-1382 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Robert A. Fredona February 2010 © 2010 Robert A. Fredona POLITICAL CONSPIRACY IN FLORENCE, 1340-82 Robert A. Fredona, Ph. D. Cornell University 2010 This dissertation examines the role of secret practices of opposition in the urban politics of Florence between 1340 and 1382. It is based on a wide variety of printed and archival sources, including chronicles, judicial records, government enactments, the records of consultative assemblies, statutes, chancery letters, tax records, private diaries and account books, and the ad hoc opinions (consilia) of jurists. Over the course of four chapters, it presents three major arguments: (1) Conspiracy, a central mechanism of political change and the predominant expression of political dissent in the city, remained primarily a function of the factionalism that had shattered the medieval commune, although it was now practiced not as open warfare but secret resistance. (2) Conspiracies were especially common when the city was ruled by popular governments, which faced almost constant conspiratorial resistance from elite factions that been expelled from the city or had had their political power restricted, while also inspiring increased worker unrest and secret labor organization. (3) Although historians have often located the origins of the “state” in the late medieval and early Renaissance cities of northern and central Italy, the prevalence of secret political opposition, the strength of conspirators and their allies, and the ability of conspiratorial networks, large worker congregations, and even powerful families to vie with weak regimes for power and legitimacy seriously calls this into question.

  • The Influence of Canon Law on Ius Commune in Its Formative Period
    THE INFLUENCE OF CANON LAW ON IUS COMMUNE IN ITS FORMATIVE PERIOD Sami Mehmeti Faculty of Law, South East European University, Tetovo E-mail: [email protected] DOI: 10.1515/seeur-2015-0034 Abstract In the Medieval period, Roman law and canon law formed ius commune or the common European law. The similarity between Roman and canon law was that they used the same methods and the difference was that they relied on different authoritative texts. In their works canonists and civilists combined the ancient Greek achievements in philosophy with the Roman achievements in the field of law. Canonists were the first who carried out research on the distinctions between various legal sources and systematized them according to a hierarchical order. The Medieval civilists sought solutions in canon law for a large number of problems that Justinian’s Codification did not hinge on or did it only superficially. Solutions offered by canon law were accepted not only in the civil law of Continental Europe, but also in the English law. Key words: Canon law, Roman law, ius commune, Decretum, Corpus iuris civilis 1. Introduction Between the 11th and 14th centuries, the Catholic Church was not only the largest and most organized public institution in Western Europe, but it also had the wealthiest intellectual resources and the most efficient legal system (Deanesly, 1969, pp. 121-130). For medieval lawyers, Roman law and canon law formed ius commune or the common law. The classical canon law used 155 SEEU Review | Volume 11 | Issue 2 | 2015 the same methods as those of the medieval civilists.

  • Law and War in Late Medieval Italy: the Jus Commune on War and Its Application in Florence, C
    Law and War in Late Medieval Italy: the Jus Commune on War and its Application in Florence, c. 1150-1450 by Ryan Martin Greenwood A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Ryan Martin Greenwood (2011) Law and War in Late Medieval Italy: the Jus Commune on War and its Application in Florence, c. 1150-1450 Ryan Martin Greenwood Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto 2011 Abstract This study, on law and war in late medieval Italy, has two primary aims. One is to review the legal tradition on war as it developed in the medieval jus commune, or common law, from approximately 1150-1300, and then to consider how that tradition evolved from roughly 1300-1450. In general the latter period still represents a lacuna in scholarship on the legal theory of war, and can be addressed as a distinct period because the fourteenth century was a time when theory moved in important new directions. It will be suggested in turn that those new directions were related to changing politics and institutions in Italy. The second aim continues and reflects the first, as it seeks to better understand how legal arguments about war and peace were employed in practice, using Florence as an example. The study finds that these legal arguments found their most important role in diplomacy. Florentine diplomatic records, as well as legal opinions (or consilia) on inter-city disputes, will help to examine the complex nature of that role.

The user has requested enhancement of the downloaded file. BARTOLUS AND THE CONFLICT OF LAWS NIKITAS E. HATZIMIHAIL I. INTRODUCTION Of the many jurists who have dealt with the ―dismal swamp‖ of the conflict of laws, perhaps only Bartolus of Sassoferrato (1314-1357), and Friedrich Karl von Savigny (1779-1861), may today boast of a truly global reputation. Charles Dumoulin, Ulric Huber or Joseph Story are, by comparison, only lo- cal celebrities. This is interesting, because, while the legacy of Savigny to the conflict of laws is easy to pinpoint and generally acknowledged, it is less clear what Bartolus has stood for. A respectable French textbook reduces him to the role of having made existing doctrines more easily accessible to a broader public1. At the same time, a leading American casebook goes as far as to ascribe to Bartolus, among other things, the discovery of a constitution- al foundation for his analysis of conflicts issues, the unilateralist approach to Assistant Professor of Private Law, University of Cyprus. This article is the child of a longstanding discussion with Professor Charles Donahue, to whom I owe many thanks as well as the translations of Carolus de Tocco, Accursius and Al- dricus.

  • Baldus De Ubaldis
    YALE LAW JOURNAL. BALDUS DE UBALDIS. In the picturesque city of Perugia, its ancient university recently celebrated in the most worthy manner, the fifth centenary of a great medieval lawyer, Baldus de Ubaldis. All the Italian universities, from Bologna, prototype of the universities of the world, to the most recently created, were personally represented. The universities of almost all those countries where Roman law has, or once had sway took part-France and Belgium, Holland and Germany, Switzer- land, Austria and Hungary, Roumania and Russia, even distant Scotland, were in some form represented. Nor were sympathetic adhesions awanting from the countries of the Common Law. Ox- ford was represented by a distinguished jurist, and other universities in England and some of those in America, namely Clark and Penn- sylvania, concurred in tributes to the great lawyer. The Italian Government and the city of Perugia, it goes without saying, took conspicuous parts, and a specially interesting feature of the cele- bration Wvas that the descendants of the Ubaldi, the Counts Baldeschi, were present. Under the fitting presidericy of the distinguished Rector of the University, Professor Bellucci, all went well. When one thinks, how local and how brief is the reputation among the Anglo-Saxon races, of even the most conspicuous of the lawyers of the day, one is tempted to ask, who was this Baldus, and what did he accomplish, that he should have been known so widely, and remembered so long? These questions I purpose endeavoring to answer. Having been asked by the editor of the YALE LAw JOURNAL to send him a contribution, and recollecting well how generously the youth of Yale University forgive faults in the teller, if only there be the desire to tell something which may be worth the knowing, I propose to write my answers for the benefit of his readers.
