Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history of construction trade practices in Mantua, Italy, during the late Middle Ages and Renaissance. The text centers around the newly discovered records of the Masons' Guild that provide an unparalleled window into the lives, laws, and regulations governing this vital profession. Spanning six centuries from the 14th to the 16th century, the documents provide insights into the everyday workings of a medieval trade organization. They reveal the guild's meticulous record-keeping, its rituals and practices, its financial management, and its role in fostering mutual support and protection among its members. The book offers valuable insights into the broader historical context of the period, examining the influence of the Gonzaga family as patrons of the arts and the impact of urban development on the construction industry. By tracing the evolution of the guild's statutes and ordinances, the author sheds light on the changing social and economic conditions that shaped the lives of Mantuan masons. The wealth of information presented in this book makes it an essential resource for scholars of medieval history, urban studies, and the history of construction practices. Through its meticulous documentation and analysis, the book provides a deeper understanding of the vital role played by trade guilds in the development of urban societies and the preservation of artisanal traditions.
