This book examines the relationship between Italian city-states and their rural territories during the Middle Ages, with a focus on the Republic of Siena and its contado. The author argues that the conquest and administration of the contado was a complex and multifaceted process that involved a variety of factors, including economic, political, and military considerations. The book draws on a wide range of sources, including legal documents, chronicles, and archaeological evidence, to provide a detailed and nuanced account of the relationship between Siena and its contado. The author concludes that the Republic of Siena's domination of its contado was a key factor in its economic and political development, and that the relationship between the city and its rural territory was a defining feature of medieval Italian history.
