"Cronaca di Fra Salimbene parmigiano vol. II" by da Parma Salimbene is a historical account written in the late 13th century. The work serves as a chronicle of events during the turbulent period of the late Middle Ages in Italy, particularly focusing on the interactions between various factions, such as the Guelphs and Ghibellines, as well as the reign of King Charles against Manfred. Salimbene's narrative likely provides insights into the socio-political climate of his time, recounting both conflicts and notable figures. At the start of the chronicle, the author recounts events from the year 1266, including King Charles' military campaigns against Manfred and the capture of several territories in Italy. The text details significant battles, the fates of various noblemen, and the ensuing political turmoil, alongside mentions of natural phenomena that influenced the land. Salimbene emphasizes the need for impartiality in historical documentation, suggesting the complexity of human character and the historical context in which these events unfolded. This opening segment sets the stage for a detailed exploration of medieval Italian history through the eyes of a Franciscan monk. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
Reading ease score: 53.0 (10th to 12th grade). Somewhat difficult to read.
