Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Defence of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America, Vol. 3 This concession of governing themselves by their own laws, obtained by the provinces of Italy, was the mere liberality of Charlemain, at a time when, having delivered them entirely from the government of the barbarians, he placed them under the command of one of his royal ministers, with the title of marquis, or of duke. Under this system of government was comprehended Tuscany, which had its dukes and marquisses, who governed it. But as it was the custom of Charlemain, and, long after him, of his successors, to fend to the cities of this, province two subaltern ministers, one with the name of castaldo, or governor, and the other with that of count, which is as much as to say, judge of the city, who held his courts of justice either alone, or in conjunction with the castaldo, and very often with the bishop of the place, as the bishops were assessors and officers, deputed as vassals of the king or the emperor; so the city of Pistoia was a long time ruled and governed by this order of castaldi and counts.
