Terra e rendite nei secoli XII-XIII: Normandia, Inghliterra, Terrasanta.

Abstract

Land and revenue in the Twelfth and Thirteenth Century: Normandy, England, the Holy Land Thanks to the documentation made available by the “Patrologia Latina” database, the author has managed to reconstruct the legal-institutional profile of the concessions ad firmam and their socio-economic contexts from the twelfth to the thirteenth centuries in Normandy, England, and the Holy Land. These agrarian contracts have usually escaped scholarly attention and are intriguing for their connection with the contractus censualis and the census reservativus, a legal institution present throughout the modern age and which played an important role in the revolutionaryn.
