L’articolo analizza gli effetti dei poteri regi sull’articolazione dei paesaggi antropici, naturali e agrari a partire dal IX secolo. Il territorio campione analizzato corrisponde a un’area del centro- sud della Toscana, caratterizzata dalla presenza di importanti risorse quali i giacimenti minerari e le saline. L’interesse dei poteri pubblici, giustificato dalle risorse di quest’area, plasmò in maniera evidente i paesaggi creando così dei luoghi centrali posti nella pianura costiera. Le politiche di sfruttamento di alcune di queste risorse ebbero poi un importante riflesso anche nelle aree collinari interne.

Abstract
The article analyses the effects of royal powers on the articulation of anthropic, natural and agrarian landscapes from ninth century onwards. The sample territory analysed corresponds to an area in central-southern Tuscany, characterised by the presence of important resources such as mineral deposits and salt pans. The interest of the public authorities, justified by the resources of this area, clearly shaped the landscapes, thus creating central places on the coastal plain. The policies of exploitation of some of these resources also had an important reflection in the inland hill areas.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
