Polity Press, Cambridge, 1993, ISBN:0745607241
VILLARI, Rosario. The Revolt of Naples. (Cambridge): Polity Press, (1993). Pp. (2),[i]-[xii],[1]-280. 8vo, black cloth cover with silver lettering to spine. "This classic work of early modern European history examines one of the major events in the years of 'revolution' in Europe in the 1640s: the revolt by the people of the Kingdom of Naples against the Spanish monarchy which ruled over them. Villari analyses the preconditions of the revolt, going back to its roots in the late 16th Century and discussing economic, social and political developments in the Kingdom. Villari retraces the course of these events, from the birth and growth of the reform movement to the crises in society and the State caused by the Kingdom's enormous contribution of financial and human resources towards Spanish particiaption in the Thirty Years War. He discusses the repercussions of the revolt beyond the frontiers of Naples, and assesses the ideas and sentiments which it aroused throughout Europe." -from the dj.
