À propos de cet audio
Today, we’re launching a journey that will change the way you look at Naples.
We are about to explore the rich and troubled history of Spanish Naples, from 1442 to 1598, thanks to the masterful work of Guido D'Agostino. This volume is not just a book—it’s a passport to an era of absolute power, bloody revolts, and a booming Renaissance.
Did you know that the attempt to introduce the Spanish-style Inquisition sparked one of the fiercest Neapolitan rebellions, forcing the Viceroys to retreat? We will tell you about the rise of Alfonso the Magnanimous, patron of intellectuals like Lorenzo Valla, who transformed Naples into a Mediterranean economic epicenter.We’ll discover figures like Ferrante I, the "Aristomonarch" who dealt with rebellious barons, and the fiery Alfonso II, nicknamed a "fire-breathing dragon" for his military campaigns against the Turks!It's a story of political intrigue, conflicts between Church and State, and how Naples, defying all odds, established itself as the undisputed "Capital of the Kingdom."If you love history, art, and plot twists worthy of a TV series, you can't miss the presentation of this volume.
We look forward to seeing you at the Monumental Complex of Santa Maria La Nova for the Books & Museum event.Search for "Napoli Spagnola" by Guido D'Agostino and prepare to be amazed!
