Non-dotal assets can be defined as those different kinds of goods which should be managed directly by married women. The extrados, an institution which was relatively unregulated and attested already in the second half of the twelfth century – much earlier than in other contexts –, can be found in practically all social classes and in the entire Ligurian area. The article examines the problem of recognizing these assets, their constitution, and management, and were often used for the purposes of family dynamics and social mobility. It concludes by discussing the transformation of the extrados, especially in the late thirteenth century, when these kinds of goods began to be assimilated partly to the Roman paraphernalia, and partly to the dowry, and thus started to fall under the husband’s control.

Abstract
Non-dotal assets can be defined as those different kinds of goods which should be managed directly by married women. The extrados, an institution which was relatively unregulated and attested already in the second half of the twelfth century – much earlier than in other contexts –, can be found in practically all social classes and in the entire Ligurian area. The article examines the problem of recognizing these assets, their constitution, and management, and were often used for the purposes of family dynamics and social mobility. It concludes by discussing the transformation of the extrados, especially in the late thirteenth century, when these kinds of goods began to be assimilated partly to the Roman paraphernalia, and partly to the dowry, and thus started to fall under the husband’s control.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
