Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a historical fiction version of events leading up to the Battle of Fossalta, fought between the factions of two noble Bolognese families in 1249. It begins with the Modenese sending two foolhardy ambassadors to Bologna to demand the surrender of two castles, sparking a war in which the Papal Legate Cardinal Ottaviano degli Ubaldini is assassinated. The author places the fictional character, Antonio Lambertacci, at the heart of this conflict and tells the story of his rise to power and his tragic downfall. Exploring themes of ambition, loyalty, and the human cost of war, the novel delves into the political climate of 13th-century Italy, where papal authority vied with the power of the nobility and the burgeoning influence of the merchant class, offering insights into the complexities of medieval society and human nature.
