An Unpublished Manuscript about the Relegation of Voivode Constantin Brâncoveanu

  • TITLU în română: Un manuscris nepublicat despre Relegarea voievodului Constantin Brâncoveanu
  • Subiect: In 1718 there appeared in Venice Istoria delle moderne rivoluzioni della Valachia, written by Anton-Maria Del Chiaro, who was, at first, secretary of the princely court chancellery of Wallachia during the reign of Constantin Brâncoveanu, and then tutor to the children of the latter’s successor to the throne, Ştefan Cantacuzino. The book presents the author’s two-decade experience in a Christian country located at the gates of the Orient and provides a genuine overview of the Romanian society at the end of the 17th century and the beginning of the next. Many of the aspects recounted by the Italian are unique and cannot be found in the writings of other chroniclers of the time, which is why historiography has always sought confirmations from other preserved documentary sources.
