Fifteenth- and sixteenth-century Venetian society is generally described according to the tripartition between patricians, citizens, and popolo. This article seeks to examine the popolo and the popolani of Venice, combining a terminological and conceptual study of these categories with a sociological analysis of the individuals who belonged to them. The history of how these social groups came about reveals the complex definition of the popolo in Venice between the end of the Middle Ages and the start of the early modern era. A consideration of the popolani's 'condition' involves analysis of how they established who they were and the framework of ther action, according to the associations, spaces, and institutions in which they interacted.
