| Summary: | This paper examines the numerous famous theories as to the origin of the English device of the trust during the middle ages with particular reference to the influence of the Franciscans in relation to the device of the use. It argues that the influence of the Franciscans and the continental disputes over apostolic poverty and church property needs to be explored in more detail by legal historians and also that the «origin» of the English use, the progenitor of the trust, as well as the trust itself, lies in an assemblage of possible influences and juridical transplantations. Il presente saggio ripercorre la vasta letteratura scientifica sulle origini medievali dell’istituto del “trust”, con specifica attenzione al contributo dei Francescani in relazione alla nozione di «uso». Si ritiene in particolare che l’influenza dei Francescani e delle dispute continentali sulla povertà apostolica e la proprietà nella Chiesa debbano essere esplorate più in dettaglio dagli storici del diritto e, inoltre, che l’«origine» tanto del concetto inglese di uso, antecedente storico del «trust», quanto di quest’ultimo siano da considerarsi il prodotto di un processo di aggregazione di fattori esterni e trapianti giuridici. |
