Excerpt from IL Cardinal di Ravenna al Governo d'Ancona e IL Suo Processo Sotto Paolo III: Racconto Storico
Fui fortunato, perchč colą trovai appunto conservato nientemeno che l'intero archivio privato del cardinale, mooolto, morto lui, dal duca, che ne era stato l'erede fiduciario, e passato poscia, con tutte le carte medicee, all'archivio di Stato. Un vero tesoro di documenti. Diciassette grosse filze, contenenti oltre duemila carte d'una importanza singolare, erano assai pił di quanto lo sperassi rinvenire.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a fascinating period of Anconitan history, detailing the events leading up to the city's loss of independence and annexation by the Papal States. The author draws on a wealth of primary sources, including letters, depositions, and eyewitness accounts, to reconstruct the dramatic events that unfolded during Cardinal Benedetto Accolti's rule. Accolti, Archbishop of Ravenna, was tasked with the governance of Ancona by Pope Clement VII. However, the author reveals that Accolti harbored secret ambitions to seize the city for himself. The book explores the power struggles, treachery, and corruption that characterized this era, shedding light on the factors that ultimately led to Ancona's downfall. Through a meticulous examination of the historical record, the author unravels the complex motivations and actions of the key players involved, including Accolti himself, who emerges as a figure of considerable intrigue and moral ambiguity.
