The nationalist historiography, on which we still largely depend, presented the Empire as alien to the very essence of humanism and modernity. Associating humanism with republicanism, scholars silently suggested that the belief in the peace-bringing emperor faded away as the Renaissance unfolded. No real humanist, so it was believed, could genuinely support the medieval construct that was the Holy Roman Empire.Only recently has this historiographical framework really been challenged. The present volume builds further on the thesis that humanism was perfectly compatible with imperialist political ideals. It aims to bring together new perspectives on empire and emperors in Italy and to highlight the continuing importance of the imperial ideal throughout the fourteenth and fifteenth century. It focuses on imperial discourses in the writings of Italian historians, humanists, poets, jurists and notaries.The imitation of Roman emperors is both a sign of the Renaissance and a central aspect in medieval political thought. It may, therefore, not surprise that the descent of the ?king of the Romans? into Italy attracted the attention of Italians with humanist tastes. The name of empire aroused high expectations. Orations, histories, treatises, and letters show that many still generally accepted the legitimacy of the empire and considered the contemporary Holy Roman Emperor as the lawful leader of the Christian world. 606 $aCivilisation médiévale$xInfluence romaine$2ram 606 $aHumanistes$xPensée politique et sociale$zItalie$yMoyen âge$2ram 606 $aEmpereurs$xSaint Empire romain germanique$xHistoriographie$2ram 606 $aHistoriographie médiévale$xAspect politique$2ram 606 $aSaint Empire romain germanique$y1273-1517$2ram 607 $aItaly$xCivilization$xClassical influences$vCongresses 607 $aHoly Roman Empire$xHistory$y1273-1517$vCongresses 607 $aHoly Roman Empire$xKings and rulers$xHistoriography$vCongresses 607 $aItaly$xHistory$y1268-1492$vCongresses 607 $aEurope$zHoly Roman Empire$2fast 607 $aItaly$2fast 608 $aConference papers and proceedings.$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 610 $aHoly Roman Empire 610 $aImperial discourse 610 $apolitical discourse 610 $aXIIIth-XVI centuries 615 7$aCivilisation médiévale$xInfluence romaine 615 7$aHumanistes$xPensée politique et sociale 615 7$aEmpereurs$xSaint Empire romain germanique$xHistoriographie 615 7$aHistoriographie médiévale$xAspect politique 615 7$aSaint Empire romain germanique 700 $aHuijbers$b Anne$4edt$01113600 702 $aHuijbers$b Anne 801 2$bBeLU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910571797403321 996 $aEmperors and imperial discourse in Italy, c. 1300-1500$93361102 997 $aUNINA
