The Castellany Computi and the Accountability of Territorial Officers in Savoy, c. 1260-1370
The present study puts forth a general framework for understanding the first hundred years of castellany accounts (computi) in Savoy. Analysing the computi’s evidence on accounting practice for clues about institutional development, the article traces the subtle shifts in the priorities of Savoyard accountability: prescriptive (concerned with the definition and preservation of the count’s rights and patrimony), financial (controlling the flow of …
Accounts and Accountability in Late Medieval Europe: Records, Procedures, and Socio-Political Impact
From the Auditing of Accounts to Institutional Accountability final section of this introduction highlights what the volume brings new to the study of accounts and accountability in the later Middle Ages and explores how the findings of the different chapters relate to each other.Arguably the most important of these interwoven threads, at least for the purposes of the present volume, are finances and administration.Their close interrelation is ev…
Conversion and Autobiography: The Case of Salimbene of Parma
This article focuses on an autobiographical episode from the chronicle of the Franciscan friar, Salimbene de Adam of Parma (c. 1221–90). His entrance into the Order of the Brothers Minor, against the express wishes of his father who saw his last heir abandon the secular world, is depicted in the text as the crucial event of his life: in effect, a religious conversion. This article brings to the fore Salimbene’s ideal of individual agency and auto…
Le Chemin de Povreté Et de Richesse and the Late Medieval Social Imaginary
Authored by a modest legal professional, Le chemin de povreté et de richesse offers a remarkable entry point into the late medieval social imaginary, bringing into focus the views of the urban laity. Responding to socioeconomic instability, the author articulates a model of conduct that relies on pragmatic rationality (personified by Raison [Reason]), work, and self-discipline for the attainment of a moderate but secure social standing. While rel…
From Moral Agent to Actant: Conduct inLe Ménagier de Paris
This essay sheds new light on a well-known medieval conduct treatise by adopting a perspective informed by social scientific conceptualizations of agency, as a complement and corrective to the paradigm of power. This creates a framework that can help us capture the ways in which the bourgeois wife, envisaged in the Ménagier as fundamentally disempowered in relation to the husband, could act in pursuit of strategic objectives. The text makes clear…
Gregorio Dati (1362–1435) and the Limits of Individual Agency
This article focuses on the diary of the Florentine Gregorio Dati (1362–1435) and its significance for the study of agency in pre-modern Europe. In particular, this article analyses Dati's ‘abeyance of individual agency’ in the context of his family affairs, business ventures, and participation in politics, as well as in relation to Dati's views on his personal development. The diary data, and in particular the private memoranda of 1404 and 1412,…
