Abstract
The aim of this article is to show the close link between the medieval French romance Guillaume d’Angleterre – composed in the second half of the thirteenth century – and the contemporary revaluation of the merchant class. As a matter of fact the romance proposes the same path to rehabilitation of the merchant figure as that suggested by coeval theological speculation, principally elaborated upon by the Franciscans. The process of moralization and sacralization of mercantile practice is carried out through the representation of a variegated sample of merchants, each bearing distinct characterizations and different conceptions of commercial activity.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
