Nuove notizie sui rapporti economico-politici tra la repubblica di Genova e il Giudicato di Arborea fra Tre e Quattrocento (1387-1410)

Abstract

In the light of new documents that have been found in the Archivo de la Corona de Aragon in Barcelona and in the Archivio di Stato of Ge­noa, this article presents a new outline of the political and economic rela­tionship among the "Giudicato" (Kingdom) of Arborea, the Republic of 'Genoa and the Crown of Aragon during the reigns of John I, Martin the Human, Ferdinand I and the first years of the reign of Alfonso V (1387-1420), a period during which took place the end of the state experience of the last Sardinian "Giudicato". These unpublished Genoese and Aragonese documents allow us to point out especially the role played by the French Crown, holder of the lordship of Genoa, in the Mediterranean area.
