THE TASSO FAMILY AND POST IN THE STATE OF MILAN DURING THE SPANISH PERIOD (1556-1650)
The book recreates the postal and human adventure of the Tasso family in the State of Milan during the Spanish domination.
The work investigates how the history of the Milanese branch of the Tasso's postal company is intertwined with the political, institutional and social requirements of the Duchy of Milan, of the Spanish Crown and of the Italian and European contexts existing in the 94 years examined.
This is accompanied by the genealogical history of the family. The author reconstructs the biographic history of the family components, with their conflicts and their relationships with institutions and with the territory.
