La strage di San Bartolomeo

Una notte di sangue a Parigi

About this book

Il 18 agosto 1572 si celebrò a Parigi il matrimonio tra Margherita di Valois e Enrico di Borbone, che avrebbe dovuto segnare la riconciliazione tra cattolici e protestanti dopo una lunga guerra civile. Cinque giorni dopo, nella notte tra il 23 e il 24 agosto, i capi militari dei protestanti furono uccisi per ordine del re. Nelle ore successive bande armate uccisero centinaia di ugonotti parigini, accanendosi su donne, vecchi e bambini, in un delirio di sangue che trasformò Parigi in un carnaio. Il libro analizza in tutte le sue sfaccettature questo evento apparentemente irrazionale, ma in realtà frutto di una devastante miscela di crisi politica e conflitto religioso, esaminando il ruolo dei vari attori: il re Carlo IX, la regina madre Caterina de' Medici, il papato, la Spagna, i gruppi di cattolici militanti parigini. Ne risulta una innovativa lettura della notte di San Bartolomeo come evento centrale nella storia dell'Europa del Cinquecento e nell'affermazione dell'assolutismo del potere politico.
