| Sumario: | One of the most interesting and fruitful approaches for the study of the parties or factions at court is that of the spirituality shared by the members of each political group. In this study, the analysis of the spiritual influence of charismatic reformer Philip Neri draws not only on his spiritual but also political connotations, in view of his commitment to the interests of the Papacy. This article, therefore, centres on the influence that Neri exercised over the Roman curia, especially over Clement VIII (1592-1605) and his circle of cardinals, and on how his counsel affected the evolution of the pro-Spanish faction. Furthermore, with the support of later popes, such as Urban VIII (1623-1644), the spiritual influence of the Oratorians extended to other courts. Their religious practices were in fact imposed at Philip IV’s court, which resulted in Madrid having a greater dependence on Rome’s interests |
