520 _a"Storia della città di Roma nel medio evo, vol. 5/8" by Ferdinand Gregorovius is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. It traces Rome’s thirteenth century as the high point of the Middle Ages, centering on the power struggle among Papacy, Empire, and the self-governing Roman commune. The volume couples institutional analysis with vivid scenes—especially papal rites and urban pageantry—set against the rise of Italian civic republics and factional conflict. The opening of the work frames the thirteenth century as the medieval apex: the Church ascends, the Hohenstaufen Empire wanes, and Italian communes assert municipal liberty amid Guelf–Ghibelline strife. Gregorovius describes Innocent III’s election and a richly detailed coronation procession, then shows how the Pope subordinates the Prefect to papal authority and secures control over the Senate while the Commune retains notable autonomy. He recounts the swift papal restoration of the Papal State after Henry VI’s death, the Tuscan League’s stance, and Rome’s war with Viterbo over Vitorchiano, ending with Viterbo’s submission to the Roman Senate under papal mediation. Inside Rome, new noble houses (Orsini, Conti, Savelli) rise; disputes over the Poli inheritance spark urban warfare of towers and barricades, forcing Innocent to flee to Anagni before he returns to impose a settlement that reasserts papal right to designate the Senate and concentrates executive power in a single Senatore. The narrative then turns to Sicily: Innocent becomes guardian of young Frederick, counters German barons and Markward’s designs, and backs Walter of Brienne’s claims in Apulia, setting the stage for campaigns in the south.
