Our essay takes into consideration some personal piety of Charles the Fifth and Phillip the Second, such as the significant devoutness to Saint Laurence and to several Marian names (Athocha, Montserrat, etc.). Such devotion is called ‘militant’ because it is related to military occurrences or to historical events. The Hapsburgs cherished such devotion and spread it throughout their territories. Object of our research is to investigate the effect of the Hapsburgic religiousness on the building of churches, on the manufacturing of altar-pieces and devotional sculptures, ordered by official clients.
Il saggio prende in esame alcune personali devozioni di Carlo V e Filippo II, come quella emblematica per S. Lorenzo ed alcuni titoli mariani (Atocha, Montserrat etc.), qui definiti culti ‘militanti’ in quanto connessi a eventi bellici o altri avvenimenti storici, i quali furono prediletti dagli Asburgo e diffusi nei territori sottoposti al loro controllo. Obiettivo dell’indagine è approfondire quanto della religiosità asburgica si rifletta nella committenza ufficiale, influenzando la costruzione di chiese e la produzione di pale d’altare e sculture devozionali.

Abstract
Our essay takes into consideration some personal piety of Charles the Fifth and Phillip the Second, such as the significant devoutness to Saint Laurence and to several Marian names (Athocha, Montserrat, etc.). Such devotion is called ‘militant’ because it is related to military occurrences or to historical events. The Hapsburgs cherished such devotion and spread it throughout their territories. Object of our research is to investigate the effect of the Hapsburgic religiousness on the building of churches, on the manufacturing of altar-pieces and devotional sculptures, ordered by official clients.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
