Description
Summary:The paper aims to unfold early sixteenth-century approaches to papal authority by focusing on two specific fields of research. The first of these two fields is international law. Close attention is paid to the Treaty of Tordesillas, which famously has divided the New World in two areas under Spanish and Portuguese influence. The second subject invites the reader to pay closer attention to the evolution of the competence of the Pope in matter of marriages among Christian Princes. Among the cases to which special attention will be given in this context is Henry VIII’s marriage to Anne Boleyn. Il presente saggio ha lo scopo di mettere in luce il nuovo approccio circa l’autorità pontificia che viene imponendosi all’inizio del Cinquecento, concentrandosi su due profili d’indagine in particolare. Il primo, relativo al diritto internazionale, prende in esame il celebre Trattato di Tordesillas, che disciplinava inizialmente le sole aree d’interesse di Portogallo e Spagna con esclusione delle altre nazioni. Il secondo si occupa invece della competenza del papa sulle norme per i matrimoni dei cristiani. Specifico riferimento è rivolto, in quest’ultimo caso, alle nozze di Enrico VIII d’Inghilterra con Anna Bolena.
