<i>The Orsini: A Family of Roman Baroni in Context 1</i>: THE ORSINI FAMILY PAPERS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, LOS ANGELES: PROPERTY ADMINISTRATION, POLITICAL STRATEGY, AND ARCHITECTURAL LEGACY
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Much of the material in the Orsini archive at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), is administrative. Among other things, it reveals how the Orsini turned their vast but sometimes unwieldy holdings not only into income, but also into political capital. They did so in the fifteenth century partly by using two administrative tools: a form of long-term rental called emphyteusis, and the pactum redimendi— the right to buy back property after it was sold. This article examines how the Orsini applied these tools to their real-estate assets in Rome, which included some of the city's prominent buildings, such as their palace at Campo de' Fiori, and the Medici, Pazzi, and Spinelli bank buildings in the Banchi quarter. It argues that the family used emphyteuses and pacta redimendi as a means of securing and maintaining strategically important friendships, and traces the long-term impact these administrative practices had on the Orsini's buildings.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
