Шаблон:Italic title The Chronicon Faventinum[1] is a Latin chronicle of the city of Faenza and the region of Emilia-Romagna from 20 BC until AD 1236.[2] It was begun by a Faentine native, Tolosanus,[3] a deacon, magister and later secular canon of Faenza Cathedral.[4] He brought the record down to 1218.Шаблон:Sfn The chronicle was subsequently continued for a decade by at least two other anonymous writers, probably canons of the cathedral.[5]
Tolosanus was born in the mid-12th century.[2] He was a rhetorician active in municipal politics and in the local church.Шаблон:Sfn He had a biblical and classical education, an understanding of juridical procedure and good Latinity.Шаблон:Sfn He died on 5 April 1226.Шаблон:Sfn
The Chronicon is the earliest piece of urban historiography from Emilia-Romagna.Шаблон:Sfn it is divided into 153 chapters, each headed by a rubric.Шаблон:Sfn It begins with the mythical founding of the city by the Romans, which Tolosanus dates to 20 BC.[2] Tolosanus quotes extensively from Virgil and the bible.Шаблон:Sfn His work is largely legendary until the period of the communes (11–12th century).Шаблон:Sfn While for the earlier period, his chronology is based on the succession of bishops of Faenza, for the communal period it is based on the succession of magistrates.[2]
Ideologically, the Chronicon has Guelph (i.e., pro-papal) sympathies.Шаблон:Sfn The solidarity of the commune, the clergy and the bishop is stressed.Шаблон:Sfn Tolosanus was imbued with a crusading spirit and he glorifies the urban militia.Шаблон:Sfn Imola, Forlì and Ravenna are portrayed as Faenza's traditional enemies.Шаблон:Sfn Faenza was always a member of the Lombard League, and the Chronicon often rises above local history to cover the wider conflict between the league and the Holy Roman Empire.[6] It records how the city sent 27 knights to fight for the pope against the emperor during the War of the Keys (1228–1230).Шаблон:Sfn
