description The Revolt of Naples in 1647, led by the fisherman Tommaso Aniello (Masaniello), provoked intense reactions throughout the European continent. In addition, discussion on politics and the Reason of State acquired increasing relevance from the second half of the 17th century onwards. Literature followed and some intellectuals saw in these historical events the opportunity to expand their pedagogical models in the Protestant school dramas: the use of history as a method of teaching politics, rhetoric, and religion at the same time. One of these authors was Christian Weise (1642-1708) who, taking as his source some of the chronicles of the above-mentioned Revolt, wrote a play, Masaniello (1682), in which he sought to make his students, the audience and the reader reflect on political prudence and the Reason of State.
