Foreign communities, development of metallurgy and mining activities in southern Italy at the beginning of the Bourbon Dynasty (1734- 1759) (2021)

unapi

In the South of Italy, at the beginning of the Bourbon dynasty, mining and metalworking projects were intensified with the aim of promoting the development of the southern economy and manufacturing industry. To this end, the new sovereign, Charles of Bourbon, drew up a complex and ambitious project to train, with the help of workers coming from German countries, new experts in ore processing. The essay dwells on the attempts to create a modern and autochthonous mining-metallurgical culture, which, while allowing the development of a technical-scientific environment on site, would, on the one hand, provide a solution to the inadequateness and shortage of local technicians and, on the other hand, support the sustainable growth of the mineral and metallurgical sectors without having to rely on the expertise of qualified professionals from abroad.
