La riflessione politica nell’Albergo di Maiolino Bisaccioni

Abstract

The article highlights the political view in the novella L’Albergo by the Ferrarese author Maiolino Bisaccioni. The analysed text, unpublished in an annotated edition, gives a tacit view on the relationship between the sovereign and his collaborators. Generally, it offers a portrait of the 17th-century court. In this work we wanted to emphasise how fundamental is the testimony of Bisaccioni, who, as a politician and secretary at the service of many, on several occasions he expressed a personal opinion about the art of governing.
