Summary | "Istoria civile del Regno di Napoli, v. 4" by Pietro Giannone is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This volume focuses on the tumultuous reign of King Guglielmo I of Sicily, exploring themes of political intrigue, power struggles, and the dynamics between the monarchy and the barons. It details a period marked by internal revolutions and conspiracies against the king, showcasing the fragile nature of his reign amid external and internal discord. At the start of this volume, Giannone introduces Guglielmo I's troubled rule, highlighting the chaos wrought by rival barons and the influence of Majone di Bari, the king's Grand Admiral. The narrative unfolds with Guglielmo's incumbency characterized by familial grievances and political betrayals, compounded by external pressures from the Pope and the German Emperor. The text sets the stage for unfolding conflicts, detailing Guglielmo’s challenges to maintain control over his kingdom as conspiracies against him burgeon, particularly involving alliances formed among discontented barons.
