Pius IV and the Fall of the Carafa: Nepotism and Papal Authority in Counter-Reformation Rome
ISBN: 9780199670628 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Drawing from new archival research, Pius IV and the Fall of the Carafa shows how the popes of the mid-sixteenth century sought to re-assert and project their authority over the Catholic Church during the first phase of the Counter-Reformation. Its narrative focus is the trial of cardinals Carlo and Alfonso Carafa, nephews of Paul IV (1555-1559), who, together with Carlo's brother Giovanni, were arrested and indicted by their uncle's successor Pius IV (1559-65) on charges of murder, theft, and corruption. Taking place from June 1560 to April 1561 as preparations were underway for a resumption...

Electing the Pope in Early Modern Italy, 1450-1700
ISBN: 9780198797449 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Electing the Pope in Early Modern Italy, 1450-1700 offers a radical reassessment of the history of early modern papacy, constructed through the first major analytical treatment of papal elections in English. Papal elections, with their ceremonial pomp and high drama, are compelling theater, but, until now, no one has analyzed them on the basis of the problems they created for cardinals: how were they to agree rules and enforce them? How should they manage the interregnum? How did they decide for whom to vote? How was the new pope to assert himself over a group of men who, until just...

A Companion to the Early Modern Cardinal
ISBN: 9789004310964 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 18 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A Companion to the Early Modern Cardinal is the first comprehensive overview of its subject in English or any language. Cardinals are best known as the pope’s electors, but in the centuries from 1400 to 1800 they were so much more: pastors, inquisitors, diplomats, bureaucrats, statesmen, saints; entrepreneurs and investors; patrons of the arts, of music, literature, and science. Thirty-five essays explain their social background, positions and roles in Rome and beyond, and what they meant for wider society. This volume shows the impact which those men who took up the purple had in their...

The Spanish Presence in Sixteenth-Century Italy: Images of Iberia
ISBN: 9781472441492 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The sixteenth century was a critical period both for Spain s formation and for the imperial dominance of her Crown. Spanish monarchs ruled far and wide, spreading agents and culture across Europe and the wider world. Yet in Italy they encountered another culture whose achievements were even prouder and whose aspirations often even grander than their own. Italians, the nominally subaltern group, did not readily accept Spanish dominance and exercised considerable agency over how imperial Spanish identity developed within their borders. In the end Italians views sometimes even shaped how their...

Cultures of Voting in Pre-modern Europe explores those political practices and values that could be termed 'cultures of voting' and how they shaped intra- and inter-communal relationships.
