Il clero "costituzionale" del Parlamento napoletano (1820-1821)

Six voluminous books about the activity of the Parliament of the Kingdom of Two Sicilies (1820-21) were printed between 1926 and 1931 under the auspices of the Commission of the Lincei Academy for the publication of the proceedings of the Italian Constitutional Assemblies. That is why it is surprising that till today the members of that Parliament have never been the subject of relevant prosopographical studies in the socio-institutional perspective. In this context, it is particularly interesting to look at the deputies coming from the clergy that I defined "constitutional" because of their political commitment in supporting the liberal and democratic principles transposed in the new Constitution.
