Abstract
Since the Middle Ages, Milan represented one of the leading industrial and commercial European centers. Its prosperous manufactures and its strategic location between Italy and central Europe rendered the city an extremely important crossroads for merchants from all countries.

The silk industry had been introduced to Como in 1510, and after a period of decline was reestablished in 1551, and developed quickly in the following years. Silk workshops appeared in Pavia in 1547 and in Cremona in 1549. In Pavia, the manufacture expanded rapidly, and in 1554, it counted more than 20 masters and 50 looms. In addition, local merchants and craftsmen also oversaw the spinning of silk and the refining of cloths, making Pavia manufactures completely autonomous (Giovanni Vigo, Fisco e Società nella Lombardia del Cinquecento (Bologna: Il Mulino, 1979), 13; “Tra sviluppo e declino: l’economia pavese nella seconda metà del Cinquecento,” in Rivista Milanese di Economia, n. 49 (1994),108–32; Aleati and Cipolla, “Il trend economico,” 28).
For the number of workers, see ASCM, Materie, 570; on the registration of the wool merchants, see Caterina Santoro (ed.), Le matricole dei mercanti di lana sottile di Milano (Milano: Giuffrè, 1940), xxviii. In 1570, 110 wool merchants, 91 drapari (drapers), and 26 berretari (beret makers) were active in the city (ASCM, Materie, 570).
In Como, in 1553, 221 of 986 heads of household whose occupational status is recorded worked in the wool sector. However, 111 of them lived in a state of poverty (Giuseppe Mira, Aspettti dell’economia comasca (Como: Cavalleri, 1939), 148–9).
In 1553, among the 5,000 inhabitants ofthe town of Vigevano, 27.4 percent of the heads of household worked in the textile industry, primarily in the wool sector, and already in 1548, there were 41 wool cloth makers, with an annual production of about 1,300 pezze. In 1537, Monza counted 228 workers in the wool sector, and the workforce along with production would increase progressively in the following years. Even villages of a few hundred people such as Lissone, Sesto, and Seregno had their share of wool workers, mainly weavers (Diana Olivero Colombo, “Mercanti e popolari nella Vigevano del primo Cinquecento,” Rivista Storica Italiana 85 (1973), 114–61

Mazzaoui, The Italian Cotton Industry in the Later Middle Ages (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1981)).

There were 22 markets in the district of Milan, 3 in the district of Lodi, 10 in the district of Cremona, 6 in the district of Pavia, 8 in the district of Tortona, and 12 in the area of Novara and Lago Maggiore (Franco Saba, “Le forme dello scamhio. I mercati rurali,” in Commercio in Lombardia, 176–185). In fairs like the one held periodically in Vigevano, a variety of goods were exchanged, in particular wool and cotton cloths and leather items. These goods were frequently exported beyond the borders of the state as far as Piedmont, Genoa, Naples, Palermo, and France (Giuseppe Mira, “L’organizzazione fieristica della bassa lombarda alla fine del medioevo e nell’età moderna,” ASL 84 (1958).

On the main outlets of Milanese trade, see Giuseppe De Luca, Commercio del denaro e crescita economica a Milano tra Cinque e Seicento (Milano: Il Polifilo, 1996), 150–1. The importance of the Lyon market where, in 1569, at least one-third of the Italian products introduced into the city came from Milan (silk cloths, gloves, gold threads) is highlighted in Sella, Crisis and Continuity, 21; see also Gascon, “Le couple Lyon-Milan.”

See De Luca, Commercio del denaro. The European economy was characterized by an increasing emphasis on the importance of credit. In the English case, for instance, Craig Muldrew writes that “the English economic expansion after 1550, grown as consumption raised and thus making the marketing structures more complex, was based on the increasing of use of credit” (Craig Muldrew, “The Contractual Society: Litigation and the Social Order 1550–1650,” in Carlo Poni and Roberto Scazzieri (eds.), Production Networks: Market Rules and Social Norms (Bologna: Eleventh International Economic History Congress, 1994), 114).

We can basically agree with Jonathan Israel when he writes that “as far as the Iberian peninsula, Italy, the Low Countries and the Baltic were concerned, the great European depression began not ‘around 1620,’ but precisely in April, 1621. The outbreak of the second Spanish-Dutch war and the drastic government economic measures that accompanied it, were the primum mobile of the depression and certainly remained a major depressive influence on European commerce as a whole until 1648” (Jonathan I. Israel, “Spanish Wool Exports and the European Economy, 1610–40,” Economic History Reviem 35 (1982), 193–211.
The attraction of a city after an epidemic has been studied in Carlo M. Belfanti, Mestieri e forestieri. Immigrazione ed economia urbana a Mantova fra Sei e Settecento (Milan: Franco Angeli, 1994).
While it is difficult to measure the size of the immigration that revitalized Milan after the plague, applications for citizenship and other archival sources related to the craft guilds allowed us to focus on a specific migratory current involving new merchant and artisan groups (Stefano D’Amico, “The Rebirth of a City: Immigration and Trade in Milan, 1630–59,” Sixteenth Century Journal 32 (2001), 699).

Moioli also notices how the good health of the urban market is confirmed by the increased issues of currency (ibid., 51).

Ricerche su patriziato e nobilta’ in alta Lombardia,” ASL 89 (1962); François Bayard, Le monde des financiers au XVIIe siecle (Paris: Flammarion, 1988), 356–66; important documents about the Milanese branch of the family are conserved in ASCM, Famiglie, 880.
On other foreign merchants active on the Milanese market, see Giovanna Tonelli, “Percorsi di integrazione commerciale e finanziaria fra Milano e i Paesi d’Oltralpe nel primo Seicento,” in Luca Mocarelli (ed.), Tra identità e integrazione.

On the penetration of the mercanti descritti also in the food sector, especially in the trade of grain, wine and spices, see Lavinia Parziale, Nutrire la città. Produzione e commercio alimentare a Milano tra Cinque e Seicento (Milan: Franco Angeli, 2009), 95–6.
The economic policy of the State of Milan has not been adequately studied yet. The few works we have are limited to the analysis of the report by a merchant from Como, Giovan Battista Tridi, and of the debate that followed, and, although very interesting, do not exhaust the issue (Sella, Crisis and Continuity, 69–76; Giovanni Vigo, “Politica economica e metamorfosi industriale nella Lombardia spagnola,” Rivista Milanese di Economia 40 (1991)). The composition and the activity of the Giunta per il ristabilimento del mercimonio, created in 1631, and of the other agencies charged with making decisions concerning both the state and city economy certainly deserve greater attention for their influence on manufacturing and trading. On the merchant chamber of Milan and its relationships with the specialized merchant guilds there are no specific studies except the short essay by Ettore Verga, La camera dei mercanti di Milano nei secoli passati (Milano: Allegretti, 1914). Note the important observations in De Luca, Commercio del denaro, 26–33.

The number of people from Biella was probably even higher if one considers the case of Campiglia, one of the communities of the Valle d’Andorno, where, in 1713, out of 216 absent men whose destination was specified, 145 were in Milan (Patrizia Audenino, Un mestiere per partire. Tradizione migratoria, lavoro e comunità in una vallata alpina (Milano: Franco Angeli, 1990), 42).
