- Resum
- Renaissance Neapolitan scientific culture developed within the framework of its academies, in the shadow of the Spanish empire, and under the philosophical spell of Bernardino Telesio and Giambattista Della Porta. The academies occupied a prominent place in the landscape of Neapolitan culture. The Neapolitan scene is distinguished by the predominance of salons devoted to theatre and the search for secrets of nature. The academies were often covers for discussion about the political realities of Naples, in particular its status as a subject territory of the Spanish Monarchy. Telesio's philosophical naturalism framed the southern Italian philosophical tradition, which came to its fullest expression in the ideas of Della Porta and Tommaso Campanella. Following Giambattista Della Porta through his life and influence, this essay attempts to provide a deep description of scientific culture in Renaissance Naples.
