- The aim of this essay is not just to underscore the undeniable richness and variedness of the information contained in the large deposit of notarial cartularies of Genoese origin (at least 250 registers till the end of the thirteenth century). The author questions not only the specific genesis of each cartulary, but also the losses, posing complex questions regarding the selection, whether intentional or random, the clientele that made recourse to a notary, the notary’s professional reaction to female clients who acted on their own behalf, the frequency with which women appear in various capacities in the documentation. By taking as an example documents concerning female property, the author suggests a less literal and naïve interpretation of notarial acts.
