Title Venetian Istria in the Embrace of a Nascent Dominium (c. 1381 - c. 1470)
Summary In the form of a case-study and through the examination of official records issued by the Venetian central government and Istrian communal bodies, sources that deal with a variety of topics ranging from official governmental politics to everyday behavior, the study will explore the multiform processes and mechanisms of state-building operating in Venetian Istria during the first age of the nascent Dominium Veneciarum (c. 1381–c. 1470) by analyzing the state’s impact on the region in matters of governmental politics, jurisprudence, social stratification and identity-building; at the same time, the thesis questions whether the introduction of the Istrian case into the body of existing scholarship pertaining to Venice might cast new light on the processes of state transformation that transpired in the region during the Quattrocento.
