Description

The Arte dei rigattieri (merchants of second-hand goods in Florence) has never been ​​the subject of a systematic study, even in scholarship devoted to the history of trades. Underpinned by a large collection of archival material, this book analyzes the social life and economic activity of rigattieri in fifteenth-century Florence. It offers invaluable information on issues such as the relationship between socio-political affiliations and economic interest as well as the structures of consumption and the spending power of different social groups. Furthermore, through the lens of the Arte dei Rigattieri, this work examines the connection between the development of the political bureaucracy, the establishment of Medicean power, and contemporaneous processes of identity construction and social mobility.

Author Biography:

Alessia Meneghin is the author of a book on the Tuscan Misericordie and co-editor of two volumes on Domestic Devotions. Her publications on Renaissance Italy and Tuscany explore issues of wet-nursing, food, credit, objects and practices of devotion, miracles, consumption, identity and social mobility of the Arti Minori.
