Note su Francesco Bellisomi (1663-1741), bibliofilo in fuga nell’Europa confessionale

Abstract

The focus of the essay is the Pavia abbot Francesco Bellisomi, author of printed texts, bibliophile and in contact with many Protestants. Arrested and prosecuted by the Roman Inquisition in 1701 and escaping from inquisitorial prisons after about ten years, Bellisomi was a longtime exile in early 18th century confessional Europe. In his constant wanderings between different European countries, he was always supported materially and morally by the networks connected to the Halle-Pietism. His vicissitudes are known mainly through two printed pamphlets, one of which is in English (London 1712) and one in German (Jena 1728).
