Istoria civile del Regno di Napoli, v. 6 by Pietro Giannone

"Istoria civile del Regno di Napoli, v. 6" by Pietro Giannone is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The work documents the political and social evolution of the Kingdom of Naples, with a focus on the complex power struggles and governance during the reign of notable figures such as King Roberto and the challenges posed by various opponents, including the Emperor and other rival factions. The opening of the volume sets the stage for a detailed exploration of the succession issues following the death of King Carlo II, emphasizing the conflict between his nephew from Hungary and Roberto, the Duke of Calabria. Key discussions among the Cardinals determine the rightful heir, leading to the eventual coronation of Roberto as King of Sicily and Naples. Giannone introduces the intricate political alliances, the influence of the Pope, and the socio-political dynamics of the time, laying a foundation for understanding the broader implications of governance in a region fraught with intrigue and rivalry.
