Book excerpt: The publication in English of this classic work will be welcomed by students and researchers in early modern European history, culture and politics. The Revolt of Naples examines one of the major events in the years of `revolution' in Europe in the 1640s: the revolt by the people of the Kingdom of Naples against the Spanish monarchy which ruled over them. Villari analyses the preconditions of the revolt, going back to its roots in the late 16th Century and discussing economic, social and political developments in the Kingdom.
