Societa' pesarese di studi storici
|
|
The "Societa' pesarese di studi storici" is an open, non profit making association, whose purpose is to promote the historical research and study of Pesaro and its region. The review "Pesaro città e contà", edited in Italian by the Società, is sent to the members; it is also forwarded to the most important Italian libraries. Foreign scholars' papers and proposals for academic cooperation are also welcome.
Pesaro is situated on the Italian Adriatic. A "colonia civium Romanorum" from 184 b.C., it was a town of the Byzantine pentapolis following the fall of the Western empire. During the Middle Ages it was a free commune under Papal high sovereignty. Later, as a "mediate subjecta", it was ruled by the Malatesta seigneurs, the Sforza and the Della Rovere, dukes of Urbino. Directly ruled by the Church since 1631, it was the main town of the apostolic legation of Urbino and Pesaro, thus a province of the Papal States. In 1860 it was occupied by the Piedmontese troops and annexed to the kingdom of Italy.
