Una biblioteca privata emiliana del 1357 : i libri di Guglielmo Arimondi, ambasciatore ad Avignone e podestà a Bologna

2022 - Leo S. Olschki

P. 31-56

  • The article analyses the list of books which belonged to the count palatine and jurist Guglielmo Arimondi of Parma and which were bequeathed by him in his will dated 11 February 1357 to the nuns of the convent of San Domenico in Parma. The books, the list of which is contained in a notarial document dated 12 October 1357, reproduced here, became the object of contention between the nuns and Giovannino Arimondi, Guglielmo's brother, who demanded their return. In this document Giovannino declares, as vouched by the nuns, that he has received his brother's books. The analysis seeks to identify wherever possible author and title for each listed book: the resulting findings show that the majority of the volumes were legal texts, except for some on religion and miscellaneous subjects.
