PIGNATARO MAGGIORE NEL XVIII SECOLO. CRONACA DELL’INEDITO CANTIERE DELLA CHIESA DI SANTA MARIA DELLA MISERICORDIA E DEL SEMINARIO VESCOVILE

This article analyzes the late seventeenth-century and eighteenth-century architectural season of Pignataro Maggiore. It should be noted that this town, belonging to the diocese of Teano-Calvi, played an important political and economic role over the period of time considered. Moreover, until the end of the twentieth century, the diocese of Calvi was independent and wisely led by bishops such as Filippo Positano, Gennaro Maria Danza and Giuseppe Maria Capece Zurlo, promoters of the transformation of the medieval religious heritage and the erection of new factories.
