The aim of this essay is that of retracing the role of cities within the parliamentary assembly, the relationship between the diverse urban centers and royal power –represented in the island by the viceroy and by the hierarchy of royal administration– and the economic burden, which the cities themselves used to take by approving the donative. In order to do so the essay will start from the analysis of the historiographical material on the theme and will progress through the assessment of the proceedings of the parliament of the Kingdom of Sardinia summoned by Alfonso V in 1421 and Ferdinand II between 1481 and 1504. Such parliamentary documents provide a detailed account of royal Sardinia, with its conflicts, its most diverse issues, mainly of economic nature, raised by the cities and more broadly by the representatives of the highest social classes sitting in parliament.
Il saggio si propone di ricostruire, partendo dalla storiografia sul tema e attraverso l'esame dei Parlamenti del Regno di Sardegna convocati da Alfonso V nel 1421 e da Ferdinando II fra il 1481 e il 1504, il ruolo delle città all'interno dell'assemblea parlamentare, i rapporti tra le diverse realtà urbane e il potere regio, l'onere economico che le stesse città si assumevano con l'approvazione del donativo. La documentazione parlamentare offre uno spaccato della Sardegna reale, con i conflitti e con i suoi molteplici problemi, soprattutto di natura economica, ai quali danno voce le città e più in generale le componenti stamentarie che siedono in Parlamento.

Abstract
The aim of this essay is that of retracing the role of cities within the parliamentary assembly, the relationship between the diverse urban centers and royal power –represented in the island by the viceroy and by the hierarchy of royal administration– and the economic burden, which the cities themselves used to take by approving the donative. In order to do so the essay will start from the analysis of the historiographical material on the theme and will progress through the assessment of the proceedings of the parliament of the Kingdom of Sardinia summoned by Alfonso V in 1421 and Ferdinand II between 1481 and 1504. Such parliamentary documents provide a detailed account of royal Sardinia, with its conflicts, its most diverse issues, mainly of economic nature, raised by the cities and more broadly by the representatives of the highest social classes sitting in parliament.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
