The work examines two unpublished parchments: with the first one Enrico Scrovegni donated in 1311 lands and a village in Padua to the Cistercians of Chiaravalle in Milan to found a new monastery of that congregation. With the second record, from 1316, he exchanged these lands with the consent of the monks with others, always located in Padua. However, the monastery was never built and Scrovegni, in his will, referred to a revocation of the donation, which he had formalized in two acts of 1331 and 1334. Although Enrico never managed to get back in possession of the donated goods and ordered in his testament that this loss should be in some way compensated by taking over the incomes of those lands.

Abstract
The work examines two unpublished parchments: with the first one Enrico Scrovegni donated in 1311 lands and a village in Padua to the Cistercians of Chiaravalle in Milan to found a new monastery of that congregation. With the second record, from 1316, he exchanged these lands with the consent of the monks with others, always located in Padua. However, the monastery was never built and Scrovegni, in his will, referred to a revocation of the donation, which he had formalized in two acts of 1331 and 1334. Although Enrico never managed to get back in possession of the donated goods and ordered in his testament that this loss should be in some way compensated by taking over the incomes of those lands.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
