The Genoese Consulate of Sevilla (13th-15th Centuries). Jurisdictional Issues, Trade and Tax

Abstract

This paper reviews the functioning of the Consulate Genoese of Seville between the 13th and 15th Centuries, from the privileges granted by the kings of Castile and other documents that contain news about the same activity. First we study the jurisdiction of the consulate and the judicial powers of the consuls. They are then described the business activities of the Ligurian colony under the consulate, and other aspects related to trade such as insurance and transport. Finally, taxes on the Genoese and their goods.
