Esercizi di scrittura della nobiltà romana nelle Fiandre farnesiane. Il Compendio delle principali attioni militari fatte nella Fiandra dal principe Alessandro Farnese di Tarquinio Capizucchi
No full textThe article presents a text, Compendio delle principali attioni militari fatte nella Fiandra dal principe Alessandro Farnese, written by Tarquinio Capizucchi. After focusing on young nobles’ participation in the Spanish–Flemish war, particularly under Alessandro Farnese’s command, readers are given some information about the author – a military officer from Rome, nephew of Camillo, who died in Komárom in November 1597. Then follow explanations regarding the Compendio itself – an account of a particular phase of Farnese’s 1581 campaign in Northern France, without autobiographical details, except for one. Instead, the text offers realistic judgements about the Prince of Parma’s strategy and about the political background, not so common among Roman men of war. An edition of the source with notes appears in the appendix

The identity of papal soldiers in the early modern age
No full textThe disproportion between the continuous attention to the military orders by the popes of the early modern age and the meager results obtained is evident. However, these were not imposed by the religious foundations of the State of the Church. The pope’s army never worked effectively because it failed to build a peculiar identity for those who militated within it. By resorting to sociology, this paper traces the mechanisms of identity building and shows the cultural proposal of a “Soldier of the Holy Church”, with repercussions in military legislation and even in the history of art. This proposal was only partly accepted, as documents indicate. In fact, it had to coexist with other forms of identity, already internalized by officers and soldiers, based on other values. Ultimately, this conflict of identity was the real cause of the weakness of the pope’s army
