Abstract

Fro. the end of the tenth century, ‘ the Exarchate of Ravenna’, which included the whole of Romagna, was within the medieval Empire. At the beginning of the thirteenth century, the papacy attempted to reassert its right to possession of the province, but only with the conflict of Frederick II and Gregory IX, did its claims take on any immediacy. Every town and noble in the province was then faced with the problem of allegiance: to pope or emperor, to Guelf or Ghibelline.

Dentro a questi termin., idest praedictos confines, è ripieno di venenosi sterp., scilicet tyrannis parvis et magnis vere pestiferis.

Benvenut. D. Imol. 1
