Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne and Frederick II, Empire and the papacy.
Fight Medieval Empire and Papacy: the outcome of this struggle, the Empire
won by the Pope, was forever removed from our history, the Papacy,
Guelph incapable of unity of Italy, broke away from the United
remaining Italian political life, and so the future history of unified Italy
prepared, for centuries, the territorial division of the two
Italie.
In an effort to make the drawing unit and cutting the knot
medieval history, and the relations feud with the Church, Frederick II drew
new social forces in the state, distracts from the noble service groups
and clergy, created in the Kingdom, with the gentry, the State
modern, bureaucratic, and, in Germany, orders of chivalry, religious,
the princely state, military.
Policy of Frederick II, cloaked in anti-clerical and imperialist ideologies,
acted as the historical reality of a new European social configuration,
found that the principle of his system in the new that
Frederick II was able to encode in the United back in 1231 and I try
to codify in Germany in 1235.
Frederick II did not follow predetermined political views, but its policy
and its ideologies, as determined by various social forces and the United
Papi, create a set of spiritual positions, which were marked for
Italy and Europe the beginning of modern history.
"Federico II left a legacy of ideologies which, together with other movements
century, offered training on the spirit of skeptical
Renaissance and the formation of the state and the modern conscience. Winner
in the thirteenth century, the Church would be won in the following centuries corrosion
that its institutions have made secular ideals, also born at the court
Frederick II.
"Charlemagne illusion of renewal of the ancient Roman state,
collides with the atomic structure based on the feud against which
his work unit, however large, as consistently pursued,
end up loser. Not only the death of its protagonist but
with him medieval Europe-with the building he has created-receiving accommodation
weighing in medieval history and, in what remains of this
feudistico of Catholic and medieval times, also weighs on contemporary history.
For example, we'll see how the ethical-religious policy of Charlemagne dates
assignment of-state functions (typically teaching) to the Church,
tear which it took centuries of wars and revolutions, nor
it is said that whatever was removed to the Church every function
rests with the state. "
Frederick will collide with the triumphant Carolingian feudalism, which will power of nobility
and clergy, but the defense of his policy unit,
that is the opposite of the Carolingian, forcing him to a
modern action and ideas (perhaps not realizing he
all the originality) that will pioneer the Lords of the Renaissance.
Like Machiavelli's Prince, "Frederick II was a martyr of the struggle
policy, if the success that he saw, had to abandon the moral life. "
