Campanella. Apocalisse e governo universale
A substantial study of Tommaso Campanella that reads his thought through apocalyptic interpretations of history and the idea of universal government. It follows imprisonment, papal and French contexts, and political conflict to show how philosophy, religion, and power converge in his work.
Work Information
A study that links prophecy, politics, prison, and world government to restore the historical reach of Campanella's thought.
Saverio Ricci treats Campanella's apocalyptic imagination not as a purely religious motif but as a framework for understanding history and politics. The study connects his long imprisonment, precarious return near Urban VIII, and later years in Richelieu's France with his writings, archival traces, and the power relations of his time.
Review Summaries
-
As a scholarly book, it is valued for the density with which it crosses intellectual and political history, while its demanding structure assumes prior knowledge. It is best suited to readers pursuing Campanella in depth.
