The essay emphasizes the historical source value of the Memoirs of the Nobleman of Crema GB Terni (1736-1787), considering three areas in particular: the multiple dimensions of cyclicality in a pre-industrial society (crop trends, variations in climate and prices, the rituals of Catholic religion and public life); the government of the city and Cremasque society (the patrician oligarchy and its relations with Venice, the classes and civil society); and the dynamics of emergencies (famines, explosions, fires, floods, riots).

Abstract
The essay emphasizes the historical source value of the Memoirs of the Nobleman of Crema GB Terni (1736-1787), considering three areas in particular: the multiple dimensions of cyclicality in a pre-industrial society (crop trends, variations in climate and prices, the rituals of Catholic religion and public life); the government of the city and Cremasque society (the patrician oligarchy and its relations with Venice, the classes and civil society); and the dynamics of emergencies (famines, explosions, fires, floods, riots).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
