  • Demographic Systems of Medieval Italy (6th-15th century AD)

    Open AccessIrene Barbiera, Gianpiero Dalla‐zuannaARTICLEPopulation and Development Review2024Referências: 45

    In this article, we bring together a variety of studies, both old and new, to examine continuity and change in population dynamics in Italy during the medieval millennium (476-1492 AD). Though the available data are often sporadic and should be interpreted with great caution, it is possible to clarify certain dynamics, which can be useful for guiding future research. First, population fluctuations were not impacted by migration into or out of Ita…

  • Démographie, paysannerie et famille dans la Provence du haut Moyen Âge, 813-814

    Open AccessIrene Barbiera, Maria Castiglioni et al.ARTICLEPopulation2022Citada por: 1Referências: 36

    Établi en 813-814, l'inventaire des paysans qui travaillaient pour l'abbaye Saint-Victor de Marseille donne des informations sur la dynamique démographique en Provence (France méridionale) durant le haut Moyen Âge. La structure de la population par âge est reconstruite et permet de constater qu'elle est similaire à ce que reflètent d'autres registres médiévaux européens. Avec des résultats très proches des données sur les cimetières provençaux du…

  • Differential Nuptiality and Fertility in the Länder of the Austrian Empire (1828–1865)

    Open AccessFiorenzo Rossi, Irene BarbieraARTICLEJournal of Family History2021

    We examine different aspects of nuptiality and fertility in the Länder of the Austrian Empire using the Tafeln zur Statistik der Österreichischen Monarchie (Statistical Tables of the Austrian Monarchy). This source, published from 1829 to 1871, contains data on population and natural movement. After discussing its quality, we study marriage and birth rates, and also age at wedding, illegitimacy ratio, and marital fertility. We find meaningful dif…

  • Du fer et du sang. Le genre des Grandes invasions (ive-vie siècle)

    Irene BarbieraARTICLEClio2020

    L’article analyse la représentation et la perception des Grandes invasions à la fin du xixe siècle et au début du xxe siècle : des mouvements de groupes ethniques cohérents, conduits par des héros masculins. Ce modèle a été suggéré à partir d’un type spécifique de sagas mythiques du haut Moyen Âge, les Origines gentium qui, s’appuyant sur différentes sources anciennes, présentaient l’échiquier complexe des déplacements, des guerres et des allianc…

  • A synthetic measure of mortality using skeletal data from ancient cemeteries

    Open AccessIrene Barbiera, Maria Castiglioni et al.ARTICLEDemographic Research2018Citada por: 3Referências: 21

    Due to the scarcity of written sources in ancient historical periods, and thanks to the development of increasingly sophisticated methods of excavation, recognition, publication, and interpretation, archaeology has played an important role in the understan

  • Osteology

    Open AccessIrene BarbieraCHAPTERThe Encyclopedia of Ancient History2015

    Osteology – from the Greek ostéon , meaning bone – is the study of human and faunal bones. A branch of anatomy, it is relevant both to forensic anthropology and also, to a greater extent, to disciplines dealing with animal and human history, including zooarchaeology, paleontology, physical anthropology, paleopathology, and archaeology. Bones preserve a range of information: they can tell us a past individual's size, gender, age, and nutritional s…

  • Buried together, buried alone

    Open AccessIrene BarbieraARTICLEEarly Medieval Europe2015Citada por: 2

    This essay explores the ways in which strategies of commemoration elaborated by kin groups changed after the end of the western Roman empire and what role C hristianity played in these transformations. In order to shed some light on the situation, a broad sample of cemeteries dating from late antiquity and the early M iddle A ges was analysed, focusing on the spatial organization of the individuals within the cemeteries and around cult places. Fo…

  • Priscille Touraille, Hommes grands, femmes petites

    Irene Barbiera, Christiane Klapisch-ZuberARTICLEClio2013

    Nul besoin d’être exceptionnellement perspicace pour observer de visu que les femmes sont en général plus petites que les hommes. Mais pourquoi ? Comment sélection naturelle et facteurs biologiques opèrent-ils pour produire du dimorphisme ? Quel est le rôle de la culture et notamment des habitudes alimentaires dans la formation des différences de taille entre hommes et femmes ? Et, plus généralement, comment la culture influence-t-elle les proces…

  • Population Dynamics in Italy in the Middle Ages

    Open AccessIrene Barbiera, Gianpiero Dalla‐zuannaARTICLEPopulation and Development Review2009Citada por: 26Referências: 45

    Studies of settlements in Italy indicate that during the Early Middle Ages (6th-9th centuries) the Italian population was stagnant, whereas a slow but persistent growth followed during the High Middle Ages (10th-13th). However, the components of the dynamics of the Italian population in the long period between the Justinian Plague (around 565 in Italy) and the Black Death (1348) are largely unknown. In this article, data from anthropometric analy…
