The Sacrality of Frederick II of Swabia

Parole chiave: Frederick II of Swabia, Royal Sacrality, Representation of Power, Kingdom of Sicily, Holy Roman Empire

Abstract

By following the Kaiser Friedrich II of Ernst Kantorowicz, historians have often talked about the divine and messianic, as well as the angelic and priestly character of Frederick II (1194-1250). This paper presents the results of the analysis both of iconographic and written sources produced in the Swabian court, by calling into question the traditional interpretation.
