Popis: | In this paper it is argued that the kingdom's Aragonese rulers had a concrete policy as regards the interaction between royal and baronial justice. This policy was linked to their effort to expand royal authority, and to the late medieval and Renaissance political theory of sovereignty. Three issues are assessed: royal efforts to limit baronial jurisdiction, extend state prerogative and foster a mode of co-existence between royal and baronial officials; the writings of leading fifteenth-century Neapolitan jurists on justice; and lastly, the way in which the kingdom's tribunals, royal or feudal, operated and interacted with each other. |
