through the use of the scholarly production of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
The devotion to this Benedictine monk and his fellow martyrs, attested since the Middle
Ages, found new impetus in 1588 with the discovery in Messina of the alleged relics.
The grandiose festivities organised on the anniversary of the inventiones offered the
local ruling classes the opportunity to assert municipal glory in competition with rival
Palermo in the struggle for the role of the island’s capital. A role sought, therefore, from
a political-religious point of view by the extensive use of hagiographic piae fraudes, of
which the false relics constitute the most important visible element, fully connected to
the extensive local tradition of false privileges and pseudo-city chronicles.
to the work of disciplining, which fit well into the more general cultural atmosphere
of the late sixteenth century. A myth was built: the victorious war of Christendom,
protected by Our Lady of the Rosary, against the infidel Turk. Statues of Don Juan of
Austria appeared mainly in the territories of the Spanish monarchy, starting with the
monument created by Andrea Calamech in Messina, a port city that had been the base
of the Holy League fleet. The aim of this paper is to observe some modalities of the
fluctuation of the figure of the Turk, examining the case studies of Messina, Genoa and
Venice, three cities that, for obvious reasons, were linked to the event of Lepanto.

slave trade in Sicily between the end of the
Middle Ages and the beginning of the
Modern Age by linking up the researches
previously carried out about the Western
Sicily notary sources, especially those of
Palermo, and the ones carried out about the
Eastern side of the island, considering the
surviving documentation of Messina. The
variation of slave origins and the
involvement in the Messina market of
external operators (Catalans, Syracusans,
etc.) and of the Jewish minority is examined
in particular.
an ancient monastery dedicated to San Martino. The new abbey soon acquired
an important political role. Moreover, it obtained new and vast territorial
possessions in the areas of Palermo and Trapani. In this article, thanks to the consultation
of accounting records and notarial deeds, the economic relations between
the Benedictines of San Martino de Scalis and the Sicilian Jews are reconstructed.
Particular attention is paid to the provision of work services and trade.
