Potere, consenso e dissenso nell’Ystoriola Langobardorum Beneventum degentium di Erchemperto

2021

Diversamente da quella narrata da Paolo Diacono nella «Historia Langobardorum», la storia dei Longobardi di Benevento fra l’VIII e il IX secolo, raccontata da Erchemperto nell’«Ystoriola Langobardorum Beneventum degentium», è una storia nella quale si alternano continuamente il bene e il male, Dio e Satana, il coraggio, la virtù, l’abnegazione da un lato e, dall’altro, la viltà, il tradimento, la perfidia. Personaggi positivi e personaggi negativi – insieme alle vicende delle quali, di volta in volta, essi sono protagonisti – si susseguono nell’«Ystoriola» a ritmo incalzante, e lo storico beneventano, talora in modo palese e scoperto, più spesso in maniera ellittica e sottintesa, manifesta …

Le diocèse de Salerne au Moyen Âge : dynamiques historiques et organisation de l’espace - The Diocese of Salerne in the Middle Ages: Historical Dynam…

2015

In the middle ages, particularly between the 10th – 14th centuries, the Diocese of Salerno was among the most important ones in southern Italy. Its earliest records date back to the late 5th century and during the 10th it was elevated to archdiocese; so the city of Salerno became the center of a large diocese, among the largest of Southern Italy. This essay reconstructs the history of diocese and its public symbols (like the cathedral), demonstrating consistency with that of other Italian dioceses but, at the same time, also highlighting some specifi city resulting from more general historical dynamics of Salerno and the role it played in the southern part of Italy.

Memoria e coscienza storiografica nella “praefatio” all’«Ystoriola Langobardorum Beneventum degen-tium» di Erchemperto

2023

In this intervention the reading of the "praefatio" at the «Ystoriola Langobardorum Beneventum degentium» by Erchempert, a Lombard historian of the IXth century, is conducted. The examination allows us to observe, as a preliminary, a historian of the High Middle Ages at his “work table”, in the reference to the sources and models and, at the same time, in the clear awareness of the innovative elements that he proposes to highlight through the story of the tragic and fatal decline of the Lombard people of southern Italy. To this are added other connotations that refer to a precise historiographical awareness, such as the high judgment of himself, the profession of truthfulness of the narrati…

Testaments et pratique testamentaire dans le royaume franc (vie-viiie siècle)

2005

Les testaments merovingiens ont de longue date attire l'attention des diplomaties, des historiens du droit et de la societe. U. Nonn a montre la continuite entre testaments romains et merovingiens, mais on s'interroge toujours sur la diffusion de ces actes dans la societe et sur les conditions de leur disparition au IX e siecle. Un reexamen de la question (avec listes du materiel disponible) donne a penser que differents types d'actes a cause de mort etaient utilises dans la societe merovingienne et que les testaments aristocratiques - les seuls connus-, conserves de maniere preferentielle par les heritiers ecclesiastiques qu'ils instituaient, ne sont pas representatifs d'une pratique sans …
