Book A Companion to Early Modern Naples

Download or read book A Companion to Early Modern Naples written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-05-24 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naples was one of the largest cities in early modern Europe, and for about two centuries the largest city in the global empire ruled by the kings of Spain. Its crowded and noisy streets, the height of its buildings, the number and wealth of its churches and palaces, the celebrated natural beauty of its location, the many antiquities scattered in its environs, the fiery volcano looming over it, the drama of its people’s devotions, the size and liveliness - to put it mildly - of its plebs, all made Naples renowned and at times notorious across Europe. The new essays in this volume aim to introduce this important, fascinating, and bewildering city to readers unfamiliar with its history. Contributors are: Tommaso Astarita, John Marino, Giovanni Muto, Vladimiro Valerio, Gaetano Sabatini, Aurelio Musi, Giulio Sodano, Carlos José Hernando Sánchez, Elisa Novi Chavarria, Gabriel Guarino, Giovanni Romeo, Peter Mazur, Angelantonio Spagnoletti, J. Nicholas Napoli, Gaetana Cantone, Anthony DelDonna, Sean Cocco, Melissa Calaresu, Nancy Canepa, David Gentilcore, Diana Carrió-Invernizzi, and Anna Maria Rao.

Book Writing Southern Italy Before the Renaissance

Download or read book Writing Southern Italy Before the Renaissance written by Ronald G. Musto and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume traces the work of trecento historians of the Mezzogiorno, analyzing it through current methodological and theoretical frameworks. Questioning the current consensus, the book examines how the South as a cultural "other" began evolving over the fourteenth century, and reconsiders the nineteenth-century "Southern Question" concerning the Mezzogiorno’s history, culture and people and its lingering negative image in Europe and America. It also focuses on specific histories, authors and historiographical issues, and reviews how new understandings of the Mediterranean have begun to alter our perceptions of the South in a new global context and as the basis for new historical research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Che ruolo giocano le donne nelle diverse realtà politiche e istituzionali del Mezzogiorno medievale? Qual era il raggio della loro azione sociale? E del loro rapporto col potere cosa possiamo dire? Questo libro cerca di rispondere, a partire da una serie di ricerche puntuali, a queste domande fondamentali, provando ad allargare lo spazio delle nostre conoscenze sul tema, oggi così studiato, della capacità politica delle donne. Il Mezzogiorno italiano, dall’età normanno-sveva alle realtà di epoca angioina e aragonese, propone innanzitutto, in linea con un grande problema europeo, il tema della regalità femminile - uno dei pochi che, per evidenti motivi, è già stato sviluppato dalla tradizione storiografica. Esso viene qui ripreso e ulteriormente arricchito, ma anche integrato con altre prospettive, che spingono il nostro sguardo dentro il mondo delle corti, regie e principesche, nella sfera separata della religiosità femminile, nelle realtà urbane. Potere, quindi, ma non solo: anche committenze artistiche, ruolo familiare e iniziativa testamentaria. Il prisma tematico che si viene formando conferma, anche per la ricerca sul Mezzogiorno, quanto la storia delle donne costituisca un fondamentale terreno di innovazione per la storia sociale e politica.

Book A Companion to Observant Reform in the Late Middle Ages and Beyond

Download or read book A Companion to Observant Reform in the Late Middle Ages and Beyond written by James Mixson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Observant Movement was a widespread effort to reform religious life across Europe. It took root around 1400, and for a century and more thereafter it inspired or shaped much that became central to European religion and culture. The Observants produced many of the leading religious figures of the later Middle Ages—Catherine of Siena, Bernardino of Siena and Savonarola in Italy, Francisco Jiménez de Cisneros in Spain, and in Germany Martin Luther himself. This volume provides scholars with a current, synthetic introduction to the Observant Movement. Its essays also seek collectively to expand the horizons of our study of Observant reform, and to open new avenues for future scholarship. Contributors are Michael D. Bailey, Pietro Delcorno, Tamar Herzig, Anne Huijbers, James D. Mixson, Alison More, Carolyn Muessig, Maria Giuseppina Muzzarelli, Bert Roest, Timothy Schmitz, and Gabriella Zarri.
