Istoria civile del Regno di Napoli, v. 5 by Pietro Giannone
"Istoria civile del Regno di Napoli" by Pietro Giannone is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The work delves into the intricacies of the Kingdom of Naples, particularly during the tumultuous events following the death of Emperor Frederick II, focusing on the reign of his son, Manfredi. It examines the political strife, including the conflicts with the Church and various noble factions, that shaped the governance and social structureof the region during this period. The opening of the work introduces the reader to the character of Manfredi, who assumes control of the Kingdom after his father's death. Despite being viewed favorably due to his qualities and upbringing, he faces immediate challenges, including rebellion from various cities and opposition from Pope Innocent IV. The narrative sets the stage for the themes of loyalty, power, and the struggle for control, as it describes Manfredi's diplomatic initiatives and military responses to maintain stability in a kingdom rife with dissent. This beginning provides a compelling glimpse into the historical landscape that the author will explore further, engaging readers interested in medieval politics and the legacy of the Kingdom of Naples.
