Abstract


By considering the importance of corsairs on the Catalan-Aragonese expansion between the XIVth and the XVth centuries, this article examines several military operations planned and carried out by the Crown at the end of the XIVth century, during the war to conquer the kingdom of Sardinia and the kingdom of Sicily. By analysing the left bookkeeping, the economic and financial data were evaluated as well as the composition of the squa­drons, the recruit of corsair captains and their activity. In particular, we analyse the bookkeeping of the squadron sent to Sicily (1379-1380) to free the queen Maria, as well as its activity and the importance of booty in sustaining the war high costs.
