In this way, with the aim of understanding more clearly the evolution of the compulsory pilgrimage, it might be useful to refer to the general aspects of judicial pilgrimage as an experiment and a form of personal growth. Special attention has been paid to the introduction of “compulsory” pilgrimages within the context to the County of Flanders in the cities such as Gand, Bruges, Antwerp and Brussels where it was used as a sanction imposed on citizens guilty of certain criminal acts. That these same citizens should keep the peace was an essential condition for the well-being and the development of the community at large, and thus pilgrimage came to be used as a kind of compensation for serious offences or crimes that went against the peace and the equilibrium of the community. When analysing these documents certain elements and characteristics particular to compulsory pilgrimage may be discerned, as well as the relation between crime and punishment which, nonetheless, has not been identified within the general context of social custom. Using valuable sources such as city statutes and sentences from magistrates’ courts it has been possible to examine some concrete cases where enforced pilgrimage to Jerusalem was applied as an amendment.","PeriodicalId":42962,"journal":{"name":"NUOVA RIVISTA STORICA","volume":"100 1","pages":"517-550"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66624307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He made use of the grants of offices and dignities in the court, in the diplomacy and in the army of the infant duke of Parma to cement the loyalty of the ancient aristocracy, primarily those of the State, to the Bourbons and to consolidate his own personal power. At the same time, the foundation of the Academy of Fine Arts in Parma and the establishment of a prize for tragedies and comedies in Italian promoted the direct involvement of noblemen, even foreigners, in the political and cultural projects of the prime minister. In addition, the contacts with the ducal court provided to the members of the aristocracy the suited opportunity to take advantage of the close relationship between Parma and Paris, for example visiting, in the French metropolis, important personalities from the diplomatic, financial and intellectual world. Nevertheless, the drastic jurisdictionalistic measures of the government caused increasing misunderstanding and hostility of the noble class against Du Tillot, which played an important role in creating the political conditions to the fall of the minister, in 1771.","PeriodicalId":42962,"journal":{"name":"NUOVA RIVISTA STORICA","volume":"100 1","pages":"73-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66623762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the most important is the collection of travel accounts from the Holy Land from the Middle Ages until today. The antique part of this collection is constituted of about 150 printed editions, which also include copies dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries, with the texts of Bernhard von Breydenbach, of the so-called friar Noe (actually a revisiting of Niccolo da Poggibonsi’s account), of Burchardus of the Mount Syon, of Antonio Cruzado and others. The collection is valuable not only because the single items are sometimes of extreme rarity, but also because books are held in the same place that they describe. The collection was constituted progressively, also with documentary purposes, but it is not rare to find books donated to the friars by pilgrims at the end of their journey. Recent scholarship has demonstrated that the Custody played a key role not only in promoting the pilgrimage to the Holy Land, but also in the elaboration of the image of the Holy Land constructed in Europe between the Middle and Modern Ages. The friars contributed in fact in the writing of accounts that then became guides for those who undertook the journey, physically of just “in spirit”. This essay, as result of a cataloguing work conducted in Jerusalem, aims to present the rare books collection of the Custody, focusing in particular on the 15th and 16th century copies, with analytical bibliographical descriptions and the reconstruction of the stories of single copies (provenances, owners, uses…).","PeriodicalId":42962,"journal":{"name":"NUOVA RIVISTA STORICA","volume":"100 1","pages":"569-602"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66624358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
