Testimoni isolati di protagonisti assenti. Protocolli notarili scartati e reimpiegati in Italia settentrionale (secoli XIII-XIV)

The essay aims to outline a first synthesis framework on the subject of the discarding and reuse of notarial registers drafted in northern Italy during the 13th-14th centuries. Some problematic nodes are highlighted, as well as the potential that can be developed not only within the hitherto almost unpublished field of study of documentary fragments, but also in the long-studied field of diplomatics research.
