Description

Several texts in different genres bloom across a wide period, before, during and after the descent of King Charles to Italy (1494-1498). In his entourage literary men write propaganda texts to foster the idea of the king as savior and new messiah: this military campaign is portrayed as a new crusade to free the Holy Sepulchre from the ‘infidels’.
