Trajectories of social mobility, hierarchization and inequality. The citizenship of Saragosse during the reign of John II of Aragon
Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to delimit individual and family trajectories of social ascent and degradation within the urban elites of Zaragoza during the second half of the 15th century. In this sense, we will describe a panoramic view of the elites of Zaragoza and analyze in detail different phenomena of social mobility within this group through the consultation of the acts of the city council of Zaragoza preserved in the AMZ. The prosopographic analysis to the records of the royal chancery preserved in the ACA, as well as to the AHPNZ funds during the decades corresponding to the reign of John II (1458 -1479), will be also applied.
