• Resumen

  • The Genoese coral fishing in North Africa depicts the surrounding world as a mirror. This study explores the changes occurred between the crisis of the first settlement of Marsacares, founded in mid-15th Century, and the taking of Tabarca, around 1540. The differences and developments coming out from this comparison show the growing difficulties and the transformation of North African border into a violent frontier, marked by troubles in the passage from the Middle Ages to the Modern World.
