ROBERTO D'ANGIO'

5 May 1309 died Carl II and happened the son Roberto d' Angiò. Its incoronazione cost to Lands and the Cities of the former Ducato the enormous sum of beyond 402 ounces, paid to installments.

From part its also Papa Clemente V imposed with tenth of the sacrifices to the churches. The Arcipretura di Agerola they were asked ventiquattro tareni, that they came ready pours to you. The prompt implementation piacque to the bishop of Amalfi, for which our Archpriest it endured the sentence to a pecuniaria pain and, does not seem, also a short period of jail.

In the 1316 king Roberto it assigned Agerola to the Neapolitan xecutioner Filippo Falconiero for the annual unearned income of 46 ounces, super tares 22 and grain ten juribus, redditibus ET proventibus. The insufficient local potestà, the nonexistence to Agerola of repression forces, the raids of the criminals exposed to every danger the population and the same authorities. In the 1329 king it very sent forces equipped to perseguitare the robbers and holding under eye those powerful ones who, sometimes, armed the hand with the gangsterism. Died Filippo Falconiero the son also he of Filippo name had the possession of Agerola then and in the 1335 first daughter Giovanna, become Queen in 1343 with the name of Giovanna I.

In 1346 condition of Agerola was so poor, that it came taxed in the general coupon of the province of Principato Citeriore, which belonged, for ounces 39. Many agerolesi rich families were to that time of amalfitana origin and much Amalfitani, like the Bonito, the Capuano, the Cappasanta, the Comiteorso, the Brancia, Of Plagued possessed assets in Agerola. The rich Corsaro family possessed in the Pianillo fraction, in the name place the Corsaro, a great house of room, lands and forests, and the Capuani was owners of consisting a patrimony. The reign of Giovanna was funestato from misfatti and disorders, pestilenze and alluviums.

To Amalfi alluvium and a most violent sea storm made to disappear part of the 25 shoreline November 1343. In that period it made to very speak about himself such Ruggero Apples, than bad one it was from all feared and that yields protagonist of enterprise loving to Salerno. Its adventure inspired to Boccaccio the celebre decimates novel of the “quarter day” ('). Victim of thanks of Ruggero was the attractive and young moglie of the salernitano doctor Matteo Silvativo. It very placed in the hands of the spasimante all its mind and all its. To the blusters of the gangsterism catastrophic pestilenza joined in 1348 one. We read the terrifying description that of ago the historical writer Room: “How much then to the symptoms of yes the tremendous one morbo, they varied the countries second, but generally manifestavansi with pain of head and algore; immediately the nocciuole buboni appeared at first as Strong fever slowly attacked sick the gavaccioli ingrossavansi until to the largeness of a goose egg, to the third day, or latest to fifth, the dead women reached. The single breath or minimum contact of stinking was enough to communicate it. And the remedies did not exist. The therapy consisted in treatments of the focali points with oil of cajeput and rosmarino. The disinfections were carried out with water of lime and fumigation in the premises and the courtyards. Between all these infausti events riecco the nth infeudamento of the Ducato, and, therefore, also of Agerola. Giovanna made it in favor of the noble family Column. This time the populations were rebelled and resorted not to the Queen, but to Pope Clemente YOU. It sended to Giovanna the bubble with which he invited it not to make donations and infeudation.

To the term of the understood one it we want to remember that between the numerous works realized and completed from Roberto d' Angiò number the factories of many Neapolitan churches and the basilica of S. Greater Augustin to the Mint, in which Antonio was erected edited by the rich merchant Agerolese Lisolo Lantaro the Nail head of S. Abbot of the men of the Direction Earth of Agerola. Nail head that came impinguata from bequests and rich donations of Agerolesi and that it came trained from Governors born you of the Earth of Agerola. And we still add that king Roberto in 1331 wrote to Martino Scatola di Agerola in order to assure it to have received the rosata water to use of the Neapolitan Court.
