Abstract:
In 1488 Giuliano da Sangallo arrived in Naples with his model for a new royal palace commissioned by Lorenzo de’ Medici for the king of Naples, Ferrante of Aragon. In Giuliano da Sangallo in the Kingdom of Naples: Architecture and Cultural Exchange, Bianca de Divitiis examines the design of this royal palace in the context of the cultural and diplomatic relationship between Naples and Florence, considering the architect’s attempt to respond to the ceremonial and practical requirements of the Neapolitan court and to integrate “foreign” models with elements derived from local antiquities. De Divitiis analyzes the origins of the palace design and other important projects by Florentine architects in Naples, such as the suburban villa Poggioreale. The article looks at the knowledge, stimuli, and contacts that Giuliano acquired during his sojourn in the Kingdom of Naples and the legacy he left there.

Abstract:
The article examines the activities of the Russian diplomatic mission in Naples in 1802-1808 based on the correspondence between brothers Alexander and Konstantin Bulgakov. In accordance with the tropological methodology of the historian Hayden White, tragic and novel metanarratives are distinguished in describing the relationship between the Kingdom of Naples, Russia, and the countries of Western Europe at the beginning of the 19th century. The narration of the events in accordance with the tragic plot reveals the confrontation between the hero and the world, Napoleon and the coalition of European states led by Austria, Britain, and Russia. At the same time, the transformation of the tragedy into the novel in historical terms presupposes a change in the established world order after the end of the era of the Napoleonic Wars, which the decisions of the Congress of Vienna consolidated in 18141815. The basis of the plot in the selected metanarratives is the life of Ferdinand IV, the king of Naples, and his family; Napoleon’s military actions in Italy; diplomatic and military assistance to Naples from Russia and the life of Russians in Naples and Palermo; the events of the Patriotic War of 1812; the messianic role of Emperor Alexander in the victory over Napoleon’s army. The influence of the actions of the allied forces in 1813-1815 and the decisions of the Congress of Vienna on the emergence of national liberation movements in Italy and the subsequent unification of the country is revealed. The spatial centers of the Bulgakovs’ epistolary works are Naples, Palermo, Rome, the capitals of four empires (Paris, Vienna, London, Petersburg), and related historical figures (King Ferdinand IV and his wife Maria Carolina of Austria (sister of Marie Antoinette, the French queen), Napoleon, Joseph Bonaparte, Joachim Murat, Austrian Emperor Francis II, Russian Emperor Alexander I, Pope Pius VII, Admiral and Secretary of State of the Kingdom of Naples John Acton, Russian envoys in Naples and Rome A.Ya. Italinsky and sine, and others. The article analyzes the conceptual sphere and poetics of the “Neapolitan” text of Russian literature. In the letters, the image of Naples is presented through the situation of a meeting of Southern and Northern Europe, Naples and Petersburg, monarchy and republic, Catholicism and Orthodoxy, history and modernity. Naples is perceived as a special communicative space associated with the diplomatic activities of both brothers, with their circle of communication, and aesthetically with a private letter as a kind of an ego-document. The perception of Naples as an island state, as an “earthly paradise at the foot of a volcano”, as a city of the Lazzaroni and carnival culture brings the correspondence between the Bulgakov brothers close with descriptions of this city in Russian travelogues of the late 18th - first third of the 19th centuries. The author declares no conflicts of interests.

Abstract:
AbstractAn interesting, yet unknown episode concerning the effective permeation of the scientific revolution in eighteenth-century Kingdom of Naples (and Italy more generally) is recounted. The intriguing story of James Watt’s steam engine, prepared to serve a Royal Estate of the King of Naples in Carditello, reveals a fascinating piece of the history of that kingdom, as well as an unknown step in the history of Watt’s steam engine, whose final entrepreneurial success for the celebrated Boulton & Watt company was a direct consequence. This story reveals that, contrary to what claimed in the literature, the first introduction in Italy of the most important technological innovation of the eighteenth century did not take place with the construction of the first steamship of the Mediterranean Sea, but rather thirty years before that, thanks to the incomparable work of Giuseppe Saverio Poli, a leading scholar and an influential figure in the Kingdom of Naples. The tragic epilogue of Poli’s engine accounts for its vanishing from historical memory.

Abstract:
Valerio Villareale (Palermo, 1773-1854), the main neoclassic sculptor in Sicily, spent his young years between Naples and Rome. The paper highlights his training in Naples, where he met Filippo Tagliolini, and in Rome, where he knew Antonio Canova. Based on unpublished documents, the paper explores his participation in the Neapolitan Republic of 1799 and his activity during the reign of Gioacchino and Carolina Murat, when he sculpted the portraits of the King and the Queen as well as several stucco decorations and sculptures in the royal palaces in Caserta and Naples. At the restoration of the Borboni the Villareale returned to Palermo where he continued his career not only as a sculptor, but also as a teacher and art restorer.

Abstract:
This study intends to make a contribution to the literature on Jewish autonomy in the Late Middle Ages by analyzing Jewish political life in the Kingdom of Naples in the fifteenth century. Contrary to Italian and European scholarship which has interpreted Jewry policy in the Kingdom of Naples in the fifteenth century as a direct emanation of the ‘good heart’ of the Aragonese kings, I argue that Jewish charters must be considered the product of Jewish agency. I suggest that the Jewish ruling elites, not the king nor the municipal governmets sought the administrative and juridical separation of the iudece (Jewish Communities) from the municipal governement of southern cities. Considering that Jewish political action, and the administration of the iudeca mirrored that of cities, I argue that Jewish Communities fit perfectly into the Aragonese administrative puzzle.

Abstract:
Abstract This article seeks to shed light on attitudes towards Jews and Muslims in the Kingdom of Naples during the early fourteenth century by examining references to non-Christians in the quodlibets, disputed questions, and sermons of the Dominican theologian John of Naples (Giovanni Regina, d. ca. 1348). John’s patron, King Robert of Naples (r. 1309–1343) has traditionally been portrayed as a more tolerant monarch than his predecessor Charles II, and John’s views seem to accord well with Robert’s: he does not advocate conversion, but rather allows Jews and Muslims a limited place within Christian society. Treating topics as diverse as biblical exegesis, blasphemy, sorcery, slavery, mercenaries, and medical ethics, John’s writings on Jews and Muslims were inspired both by traditional scholastic questions and contemporary events. While his views on non-Christians are far from positive, John stops short of disseminating the more virulent polemics of his time.

In late spring of 1473 an elaborate wooden building was constructed in the piazza before the Roman church of Ss. Apostoli. This structure was to provide the setting for entertainments offered in honor of the marriage of Eleonora of Aragon, daughter of Ferrante, king of Naples, to Ercole d'Este, duke of Ferrara. The bride and her Neapolitan retinue, together with the Ferrarese contingent sent to Naples to fetch her, stayed in Rome for five days, from 5 June to 9 June. They were the guests of nephews of Sixtus IV: Pietro Riario, the cardinal of San Sisto, and Giuliano della Rovere, the cardinal of San Pietro in Vincoli.

Abstract:
During the first half of the 15th century, the Republic of Dubrovnik sought to establish diplomatic and trade relations with the powerful state of Naples. Economic exchanges and political connections expanded, as evidenced by documents from both Dubrovnik and Naples, and also in a different way also by Ragusan merchant and diplomat Benedict Kotrulj, in his famous work Del arte dela mercatura. The government of Dubrovnik was well informed about the king of Aragon, Alfonso V, and communicated with him during the reign of Queen Joanna II. Alfonso’s first charter to Ragusans, on the freedom of trade and compensation for damages inflicted on them by pirates, was issued in 1428, followed by numerous new privileges and exemptions. During the reign of Alfonso and his successor, Ferrante, the people of Dubrovnik became the most privileged merchants in the Kingdom of Naples, surpassing the Venetians. After securing the throne, Alfonso embarked on the reconstruction of the Kingdom of Naples and elevated it militarily, economically and culturally. Among the many foreign traders and companies, the Ragusans secured their place in the kingdom. Moreover, since the beginning of Alfonso’s reign, Dubrovnik became a vital diplomatic and intelligence stronghold for the king in his endeavours to fulfil to his considerable political ambitions in the eastern Adriatic seaboard and throughout the Balkan Peninsula, especially in his anti-Ottoman campaigns. The king’s diplomacy also entailed relations with Dubrovnik’s enemies, such as Duke Stjepan Vukčić Kosača, but the Dubrovnik government tolerated this, because its advantageous position in the kingdom far outweighed any drawbacks. In trade and diplomacy between Dubrovnik and the Aragonese countries, the Kotrulj family of Ragusa enjoyed the most prominent position. In the first half of the 15th century, Jacob Kotrulj, in addition to his extensive mercantile activities in the Kingdom of Naples, obtained a high number of privileges for his republic. He was also the governor of the mint in Naples. His business was continued by son Benedict just as Alfonso ascended to the throne. He was very well situated in the Aragonese court of Naples, under the protection of both Alfonso and Ferrante. As a merchant, he exploited this to his advantage, overseeing a lucrative business in southern Italy and Catalonia between Ragusan, Florentine and Catalan merchants. In addition, as his father before him, he was the governor of the mint in Naples and L’Aquila. Although he was at odds with the Republic of Dubrovnik in a lengthy commercial dispute, his immunity as an envoy of Alfonso and then Ferrante kept him safe from litigation in his home city. The reigns of Alfonso and Ferrante in the Kingdom of Naples was marked by peace and economic and cultural progress. A number of humanists and scholars of the time gathered at Alfonso’s court, including Benedict Kotrulj, a merchant, diplomat and the author of several significant works. He, his family, and the entire Republic of Dubrovnik profited from Aragonese rule in the Kingdom. Their privileged status attracted many merchants from Dubrovnik to Naples and other cities in the kingdom. In the latter half of the 15th century, privileges in the Kingdom of Naples allowed the republic to overcome the crisis caused by Ottoman conquests in the Balkan hinterland. During that period, the people of Dubrovnik reach a settlement with the Ottoman Empire, gaining great privileges there and the status of mediators between the empire and the West, in the first instance the Kingdom of Naples. The benefits were also political, as Dubrovnik was one of the important strongholds of Aragonese policy in the eastern Adriatic seaboard and in the wider hinterland. The French conquest of Naples in 1395 ended the glorious period of the Aragonese government, initiated by Alfonso’s triumph in 1442, and even the people of Dubrovnik had to alter policies and seek new alliances in southern Italy.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis aims to reassert the importance of the supranational dynasties of Europe in medieval history by considering the so-called Angevins of Naples, and specifically Charles II (1285-1309), whose matrimonial policies led to the end of the first phase of the Sicilian War and to the peace of Caltabellotta (1302). In particular, the study emphasizes the fact that the Angevins were part of the Capetian French royal house and thus refocusses the role of the Capetians within Christendom at that time, as their previous historiography has concentrated on their role within France. It investigates the the part that the various marriage combinations played in the Sicilian peace process and how they connected with Charles II's internal family strategies, demonstrating how his plans to keep most of the patrimony for his primogenitus was compromised by deals that meant that large parts of the inheritance had to be passed to daughters instead. The following chapter shows how Charles was prepared to relegate other dynastic interests to achieve these deals and how his unbalanced provision for his sons led to conflict within the dynasty. Moving on to a discussion of the legal side of marriage, the thesis discusses how Charles II was able to work within the canon law on consent, consanguinity and divorce to achieve his aims and how far the aristocratic ideas of the Duby model still conflicted with the Church. Taking the discussion of political marriage beyond the marriage treaties themselves, using the extensive correspondence between the Angevins and the royal house of Aragon, it is argued that the importance of dynastic marriage lay as much in the bonds of friendship forged between houses that were the basis of reciprocal duties and favours that were the warp and weft of medieval political life.

Abstract:
Lope de Vega’s play, La fuerza lastimosa, written around 1599 and first published in 1609, was very popular in Seventeenth-Century Italy, as research by Fausta Antonucci and Salomé Vuelta has demonstrated. Several Italian adaptations are already known, among which a dramma per musica, La forza compassionevole, written by Antonio Salvi and staged in Leghorn in 1694. In the same year, another opera based on Lope’s drama was staged in Venice (as Alfonso I) and in Naples (under the title Alfonso il Sesto re di Castiglia). Two years later, this last version was revived in Palermo, again, as in Naples, to celebrate the birthday of King Charles II of Spain. None of these three librettos indicates Lope’s authorship nor it has been hypothesized until now. However, the plot of all librettos is clearly based on Lope’s play. This chapter aims at illustrating the relation between the librettos for these three performances and La fuerza lastimosa. It also discusses the context of all the stagings and identifies some of the existing musical sources. Finally, it argues that Alessandro Scarlatti could be the author of the Neapolitan score.

The case, considering the relevance of the actor and the subject of the insurance agreement, allows us to study the discussion on the legal and ethical value of such deeds. The Appendix provides the edition of a legal consilium devoted to the case, in which a distinguished commission of lawyers discusses the problem according to the interpretation of the ius commune.

Abstract:
Towards the middle of the eighteenth century, the Kingdom of Naples government decided to build a series of large cavalry barracks in Aversa, Nola, Nocera and Santa Maria di Capua, the major cities in the provinces of Terra di Lavoro and Principato Citeriore. The initiative was part of a general reorganization of the army, commissioned by Charles of Bourbon in the early years of his reign. The king ordered the military engineers to provide for the strengthening of existing fortresses and the construction of new military garrisons, in order to improve the defence and control of the coasts, borders and internal territories of the Kingdom. In February 1740 the chief engineer Giovanni Antonio Medrano drafted a project for a cavalry barrack, which could be identified with a type settlement, because it was not indicated its location. From 1750, the construction of the barracks of Aversa, Nola and Nocera was begun, under the direction of the military engineer Giovanni Battista Bigotti. The cavalry barrack of Santa Maria Maggiore was never built, while in nearby Capua was built an infantry barracks. The downsizing of the initial programme may depend on the simultaneous construction of the Royal Palace of Caserta, which should have included stables and cavalry barracks. These buildings were built in the nineteenth century, many years after the death of Luigi Vanvitelli. The famous architect designed a cavalry barracks in Naples, near the Maddalena bridge, which presented more refined architectural solutions than the simple functionality of similar military buildings.

Abstract:
The paper considers the relations between art created on the territory of the Serbian medieval state and Italian painting from the end of the 13th and the first two decades of the 14th century in the context of contemporary historical events, as well as political and family ties between the Angevin, Nemanjić and Árpád dynasties. Representations of standardized forms of rare iconographic solutions appear in the monumental painting in the endowments of King Milutin (1282–1321), spread predominantly in the art at the territory of Serbia and Macedonia. The monumental Mother of God Pelagonitissa was shown in the church of the mon- astery in Staro Nagoričino, as well as Christ’s Ascent of the Cross in its trium- phant version, while the same scene, a different iconographic scheme empha- sizing the strong emotional charge, is preserved in the church of St. Nikita in Čučer. Moreover, a fairly unknown motif of the Mother of God kissing the Son in the cradle-sarcophagus was painted on the scene of the Birth of Christ in the Sts. Joachim and Anna Church (King's Church) in Studenica. Variations of these themes appeared in Italy in the same period, most often on small-size panels. These works, intended primarily for the Franciscans, were created in the centres where this monastic order maintained strong connections with the Guelfs, the Angevin dynasty and the popes. Thus, the interpretations of the Mother of God Pelagonitissa are found primarily in Romagna and Rimini, where Giovanni da Rimini presented this theme as the central part of the triptych, on whose side wing there was, among others, the scene of the Birth of Christ with the motif of the Mother kissing the Child. The triumphant version of Christ's ascent to the cross was painted in Tuscany and Siena, while the variation seen in the fresco in Santa Maria Donnaregina Vecchia in Naples is close to the fresco from Čučer. The significant role of the political and cultural mediator of the Serbian state was confirmed in the time of Milutin and his mother Jelena, whose relations with Angevins and Franciscans, widely present in the Balkans, are well known, simultaneously being in close contacts with popes, starting with Franciscan Pope Nicholas IV.
