Giacinto De Sivo (Maddaloni 1814 – Rome 1867) was the leading pro-Bourbon historian after the fall of the Kingdom of Naples and his books provided the main intellectual support in the struggle to undermine the legitimacy of the Kingdom of Italy. At a closer analysis, however, his image of the Neapolitan nation profoundly differs from other legitimist authors. Although recognising the traditional pillars of the Neapolitan national consciousness, De Sivo was well aware of how the latter was inseparable from the broader Italian nation. At the same time, his works offered valuable insights into the political crisis of Naples and the brigandage that followed the birth of Italy.
Giacinto De Sivo (Maddaloni 1814 - Rome 1867)是那不勒斯王国灭亡后主要的亲波旁派历史学家,他的著作为破坏意大利王国合法性的斗争提供了主要的思想支持。然而,仔细分析,他对那不勒斯国家的形象与其他正统主义作家截然不同。尽管认识到那不勒斯民族意识的传统支柱,德西沃很清楚后者是如何与更广泛的意大利民族密不可分的。与此同时,他的作品对那不勒斯的政治危机和意大利诞生后的劫掠提供了宝贵的见解。

The Insula Comacina reported in the Historia Langobardorum by Paolus Diaconus is usually recognized as being the Island in the Como Lake. This identification dates up to the eighteenth century, and it is universally accepted a priori, despite of the lack of critical analysis. By analogy, is usually accepted the equivalence of the adjectives cumanus and comacinus, notwithstanding that such parity is implausible in Latin grammar. Many clues suggest a different interpretation. We considered documentary sources from ninth, tenth and eleventh centuries, and literature prior to the eighteenth century. From our research we could deduce the existence not only of an Insula Comacina, but also of a Lacus Comacinus, as well as a land Comacina and a folk Comacinus. These four entities revolve around the hydrographical basin of the Como Lake, but far from the Island and far from its inland. The Lacus Comacinus is not synonym with Como Lake but only represents a portion of it, and this portion is different from the one where the Island lies. Accurately, it involves its sole eastern branch. The Insula Comacina, in the history of Lombards, is to be interpreted as a part of a land delimited by two confluent rivers, as others insulae which appear in middle-age sources. Such particular definition for the word insula dates up to Polybius, but it is not registered in modern lexica and dictionaries. Not far from the modern city of Lecco, by the eastern branch of Como Lake, we have identified an area which shows the characteristics of the insulae polybianae. In this area, the presence of lombard families is reported and well-established in sources of eighth century. Consequently, a new hypothesis regarding the actual location of Insula Comacina can be proposed.

Mauro Lapi (1390-1478), a Camaldolese monk from St. Michael of Murano, wrote an interesting collection of writings centered on the Holy Land after his pilgrimage in 1459. To this day they have remained unpublished and these pages will provide an examination of them. One is a treatise on gratitude and another is about cases of conscience that could happen to Christians in the Holy Land. It is also a note on the expenses incurred during the trip and especially the Itinerarium Ierosolimitanum. This work, in 21 chapters, deals with the theme of pilgrimage from different points of view, from the motivation on going to the Holy Land to spiritual meanings and eschatological Jerusalem. It also urges Christians to undertake the pilgrimage and it provides practical advice including which objects to bring, how to behave when dealing with unbelievers, etc. The Vita donni Petri, another hagiographic work, also reconstructs the pilgrimage of one of his brothers, the Blessed Peter of Sardinia, which he completed in the first decade of the 15th century. It identifies, in his experience, a determinant factor for the growth of his holiness. A translation is included in the chapter devoted to the pilgrimage of Peter.

Particularly in recent decades, late medieval Christian pilgrimage to the Holy Sepulchre has been the subject of numerous studies. Historiography has moved mainly along two lines: that of the description of the phenomenon (in itself extremely diverse) as an accumulation of anecdotes, or that of the exceptional nature of the single pilgrim, irreducible as such to the unique category of traveler devotee. This special issue aims to improve our understanding of what it meant to visit the Holy Land during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, starting from practical observation until other more abstract: from the role of the Friars Minor to the problems of interpretation that the travel texts pose, from judicial pilgrimage to relations between Mamluk sultans and Christian rulers.

Written documents about Christian pilgrimages to the Holy Land have been known since the Itinerarium burdigalense (fourth century). Since then, pilgrims’ travels have never stopped, but the fall of Acre (1291) was a dramatic turning-point. This paper aims to reconstruct the pilgrim’s life in partibus infidelium during the late mamluk period (1291-1517): how pilgrims travelled, where they sleep, what they eat, when, how and how long they visited churches and holy places.
