Summary: Many questions about the architecture of the famous villa of Poggioreale, near Naples (1487-1493 ca.), are here discussed thanks to unedited literary and iconographic sources offering detailed descriptions of the lost buildings and gardens. The book also considers for the first time, under different points of view, the history, functions, and meanings of the ‘delizie’ of the Aragonese manor, that was a fundamental step toward the development of the Renaissance villa.
