Con il senno e con la spada

Il cardinale Albornoz e l'Italia del Trecento

Francesco Pirani,

About this book

Cardinale, abile diplomatico e instancabile negoziatore, il castigliano Gil Albornoz fu indiscusso protagonista della vita politica italiana fra 1353 e 1367.Francesco Pirani, anziché proporre una tradizionale biografia, indaga gli ambiti nei quali si precisò la missione albornoziana: sotto il profilo politico, nella costante ostilità verso i Visconti di Milano; in campo militare, in una Penisola invasa da truppe mercenarie europee; come statista, nella vigorosa riconfigurazione dei poteri nello Stato della Chiesa. La sua pragmatica visione del mondo seppe dar vita a soluzioni innovative. Emergono luci e ombre di un'articolata vicenda, complicata dai difficili rapporti con la curia di Avignone, e ricca di fecondi lasciti. Ogni personalità pubblica è figlia e vittima della propria epoca, ma anche artefice di nuove realtà e di future possibilità. In questo ambiguo intreccio risiede in fondo il fascino sottile di ogni indagine.
