 Italy Week 16
We read the honour codes of medieval Italian cities through a gendered lens, and consider what reputations were built on in the late medieval community.
One of the major themes discussed by historians when writing about the culture and society of medieval Italian cities is the notion of honour and shame in the community.
Reputations were fragile, and in the context of the densely-populated late medieval city could be shattered with a well-placed nugget of gossip.

 History of DEMOCRACY
As in the Italian communes, the system of government is oligarchic rather than democratic; power tends to be in the hands of relatively few families.
In commune after commune, from the late 13th century, the local oligarchs accept a powerful leader as their signore and subsequently allow the post to remain with a family.
The result is the form of government known to historians as the medieval commune.

 commune --  Britannica Concise Encyclopedia - The online encyclopedia you can trust!
The communes of Flanders were second only to the Italian communes in size and industrial and commercial organization; at times political relations between the count of Flanders, the French king (his overlord), and England gave the Flemish communes—Ghent in particular—a significant role in European affairs.
Communes began as amalgamations of collective farms; but, in contrast to the collectives, which had been engaged exclusively in agricultural activities, the communes were to become multipurpose organizations for the direction of local government and the management of all economic and social activity.
Its modern structure dates from a law of 1884, which stipulates that communes have municipal councils that are to be elected for six years, include at least nine members, and be responsible for “the affairs of the commune.” The council...

 Bristol University - Department of Italian - Conference 7-8 July 2006
The aim of the 2006 conference is to bring together scholars whose work engages with the urban communes of late medieval Italy but whose disciplinary orientation means they often work in isolation from each other.
By juxtaposing the loci and styles of communal literary production the hope is to examine the literary and spatial commonplaces shared by these various forms of urban narrative and reflect upon what their witness to civic communion revealed about the tensions and benefits of social aggregation within self-determining urban communities.
The subject of the conference was launched at the 2005 meeting of The International Medieval Congress in Kalamazoo 5 May. The panel was convened with participants from Bristol, St. Andrews and the University of Madison Wisconsin as part of the 'Medieval Multilingualism' initiative within the Worldwide Universities Network (WUN) Medieval strand.

The fragmented social and economic structure of the entire peninsula, combined with determined political and governmental disunity, had produced an additional mass of legislation, unfocused and disparate, that was constantly in process of promulgation and development by a number of entities.
I believed that the only practical remedy to this non-implementation of Community directives was to oblige the government to address the problem by means of an annual omnibus bill.

 IMPERFECT ALTERNATIVES AND THE "WEAK THOUGHT": THE ROLE OF LEGAL ELITES IN THE IMPORT/EXPORT OF LEGAL PATTERNS
Indeed the Italian judicial style in writing opinions remained shaped after that of the Courts of the old jus commune (mainly  the courts of Florence and Rome), and was not influenced by the concise way of French judges to write opinions of just one sentence
Both countries, after the French experience, went back to the "Jus Commune", a form of uncodified Modern Roman Law, based on Justinian's Compilation as developed in  the case law.
From this point of view we find in the Western Legal Tradition an established legal profession, and three main types of personnel within it: the practicing lawyer; the legal policymaker (a legislator, an appelate court judge, or upper level administrator), and the legal scholar (law professors and the like).
