Abstract

New Christians in 16th Century Terra di Bari, according to two Unpublished Privileges from Giovinazzo and Bisceglie

This paper presents the edition of two unpublished privileges granted to the Apulian cities of Bisceglie and Giovinazzo in the early 16th century. The documents contain data regarding the connection of the two cities with Jews and New Christians, who had been expelled from the nearby town of Trani a few years earlier. In addition to the analysis of these two manuscripts, a number of other documents are also studied, including the pleas and Placet concerning the relations of the two cities with Jews and new Christians, and the privileges and contemporary acts of similar nature granted to other nearby towns. The analysis is particularly detailed for the New Christian of Giovinazzo, for whom we also possess information about their actual conversion to Christianity and related activities.
