The New Solomon: Robert of Naples (1309-1343) and Fourteenth-Century Kingship (Medieval Mediterranean)

В этой книге анализируется политика Роберта Неаполитанского в контексте больших изменений в правлении от Средневековья до раннего Нового времени. Обращаясь к королевству, как к объединенному институту правления короля и двора, исследование привлекает междисциплинарный диапазон источников - от хроник, проповедей, народной поэзии и произведений искусства до дипломатических и архивных материалов, рассматривая главные проблемы его господства, и подчеркивая важность создания изображений короля и обсуждения его правления.

Treating kingship as a joint enterprise of king and court, it draws on an interdisciplinary range of sources from chronicles, sermons, popular poetry and works of art to diplomatic and archival records, to reassess the major issues of his reign and underscore the importance of image-making and negotiation to his rule. The final chapter tracks the legacy of his image as ''the Wise'', adopted by later 14th-century kings of France, Bohemia and England before its eclipse in favour of princely prudence in the Renaissance. The first full-length study of Robert of Naples' reign in over 70 years, this volume analyzes Robert's policies and image in the context of larger shifts in rulership from the Middle Ages to the early modern period.
