Abstract
Medieval Zadar notary Petar Perencan, of the late Mister Azon de Lemicetis,
born in Padua with the title of educated notary and by imperial
authority came to Zadar in 1361 as many other Italian notaries before
and after him. His preserved notary register, still unpublished, written in
Latin, offers invaluable data on everyday life of Zadar commune. Many
clients from different social classes and ethnical origin, even Perencan’s
fellow-countrymen who moved to Zadar, concluded different kinds of
contracts in his office. The aim of this paper is to research which Paduans
appeared in his notary register and on the basis of those data analyze
the social status of Paduans in Zadar commune as well as their integration
in the new environment.
