About this listen

Written as a historical narrative, Pope Alexander's Last Travel relates the story of an individual, who happens to be Pope Alexander V, as he is forced into a perilous crossing of snow-capped mountains with his papal Court in early Spring 1410. It focuses on the human story of the man, as it might have been, constructed about the historical facts that are known to all and well established in scholarly documents and original records.

Pope Alexander V lived at a time of great turmoil within the Church and the world: the challenges of the Western Schism, the separation between the Eastern and Western Church, and the threat posed by the Ottoman Turks. Francesco Chiappelli's narrative explores these themes and provokes the question, "What might have been had Pope Alexander V's papacy lasted longer?"

This is the story of Pope Alexander's last travel through the hills of the Apennines in the Spring of 1410 as he made his way towards Rome.
