Resumen de Politics and Commemoration in Renaissance Naples: the Case of Caterina Pignatelli
The writer discusses a little known chapel annexed to the church of S Maria dei Pignatelli in Naples, which was built for Caterina Pignatelli and represents an outstanding example of the few surviving Renaissance monuments to Neapolitan women. The combination of two different types of Neapolitan memorials (the public and the private) in the chapel's iconography highlights the ambivalent attitude of Neapolitan humanism to commemoration.
