Poteri signorili in Sardegna tra Due e Trecento: i Malaspina
Seigniorial powers in Sardinia between the 13th and 14th centuries: the Malaspina
Abstract
The previous studies on Malaspina Family were mostly devoted to evenemential history, to architectural issues (especially on castles), to genealogies and to the vicissitudes of the family branches or of the territories. Thanks to a preliminary reordering of the sources, this paper would get over this approach. It would try to throw light on the characteristics of lordship in Sardinia by reducing the problem of the “origins” and by bringing out the analysis of tools and men, the analysis of the dialectics between lord and rural communities, and the analysis of the social and economic dynamics.
Nell’ambito degli studi malaspiniani è stato prevalente in passato l’interesse per la storia degli avvenimenti, per gli aspetti architettonici (i castelli soprattutto), per i quadri genealogici e le vicende dei singoli rami familiari o dei singoli territori. Il saggio si propone di superare questo approccio, cercando, grazie ad un preliminare riordino delle fonti, di fare luce sulle forme del dominio signorile in Sardegna, ridimensionando il problema delle “origini” per privilegiare l’analisi degli strumenti, degli uomini, della dialettica tra signore e comunità rurali, delle dinamiche sociali ed economiche.
