Description
Summary:The physician Marcello Squarcialupi originally from Piombino (1538-1592), a religionis causa exile, moved around European territories and did not go back to his homeland anymore. Owing to its several trials, his condition as exile was a decisive factor in his life. The different socio-cultural contexts in which he acted did not offer him satisfying professional conditions. Therefore, Squarcialupi made untiring efforts in order to improve his own socio-economic status. However, far from his family as well as discouraged because he never achieved the success he had aimed for, he developed a profound distress. The physician sought comfort in friendship with notable scholars of his day. This article sheds light on how his professional and financial concerns connected with exile led him to fade his interest for religious matters into the background. Compared to other Italian exiles, Squarcialupi reconsidered the importance of interconfessional issues and his allegiance to non-trinitarianism, supposed so far, should be carefully reappraised.
