Bologna e gli Ordinamenta Bladi (2022)

unapi

1258 represented a decisive turning point in the history of Bologna: the city was a regional power which was preparing to achieve full control over Romagna. The waves of bad weather caused by the eruption of the Samalas volcano, however, caused an important famine which was aggravated by the commercial blockade imposed by Venice, interested in undermining the Bolognese rivals from the region and acquiring full hegemony in Romagna. Within the city of Bologna, the emergency had many political repercussions: it was above all exploited by the people, who used it to gain greater power within the political space and to gain credit in the eyes of the citizenry as the only subject capable of pursuing the public good. From this conflict arose the "Ordinamenta bladi," the first systematic legislation on food which was issued in 1259, the analysis of which allows us to understand within what limits and with what measures the famine was tackled.
