Resumen de Gregorio XI, Caterina da Siena e la Toscana. Qualche riflessione sulla lega antipapale del marzo 1376
This paper analyses the relations between the cities of Tuscany and Pope Gregory XI, in relation to Florence’s desire to push Lucca and Pisa to join the anti-papal league formed with Milan in the summer of 1375. In this relationship between Florence and the two cities of north-western Tuscany, Saint Catherine of Siena’s role is highlighted. At the same time, new questions are raised for future research: what was the attitude of the Tuscan clergy? And what was the attitude of the papal rectors in central Italy?.
