Florence Sovereignty Question in Historical Argument
The article challenges the Memorial author’s claim of Florentine sovereignty, citing testimonies and imperial records. It notes that Emperors held investiture and that Florentines paid homage, yet argues this does not prove absolute independence or sovereignty. It critiques sources from Guelph faction times and questions reliance on jurists and traditions for historical right.
