Description
Explore the social and political structure of Venice from 1250 to 1650 through this scholarly study from the Toronto Italian Studies series. This book re-examines the political economy of the city-state by focusing on the popolani, or ordinary people. While many historians suggest the nobility excluded these citizens from political life, this research shows how they organized and managed hundreds of corporations. By analyzing the role of guilds and confraternities, the text demonstrates how Christian values of mercy shaped the social order. The study explains how providing aid to those in hardship functioned as a form of social investment, based on the expectation of reciprocity. This work traces the connection between religion, economy, and the Venetian polity to provide a new perspective on the lives of the non-noble population.
