Paolo Loffredo, sixth generation of a large family of publishers and booksellers engaged in the production and distribution of books since the late nineteenth century, creates in 2012 the new editorial company Paolo Loffredo Editore. The historical site was until the '80s in the heart of the historic centre of Naples in Via San Biagio dei Librai, lower Decumano and also known as the SpaccaNapoli.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, Giuseppe Loffredo decided to add book selling to the book production, which definitively imposed itself after World War II with the publication of manuals for the University and for the School that succeeded in establishing themselves soon throughout Italy.

DULCIS ALEBAT PARTHENOPE. Memorie dell’antico e forme del moderno all’ombra dell’accademia Pontaniana
The essays in this volume are the result of second thoughts, insights and researches realized by their authors after two lucky study encounters in Naples in a fruitful intellectual and emotional continuity, even if far in time, in the field of activities promoted by the Accordo di cooperazione scientifica internazionale between University of Naples Federico II and the Université de Rouen Normandie.
In the wake of this agreement, which aims to promote studies about the humanistic civilization in Naples and its Reign between the XV and XVI century, the encounters allowed many researchers to successfully confront about the definition of humanistic Neapolitan-Aragonese culture in its many aspects, giving attention both to intellectuals who contributed to the evolution of the Neapolitan Academy in its most fruitful period, and to the survival and permanence of its teaching, of its ideas and models in the literary civilization in Europe in the following centuries. These ideas and models, as it becomes more and more clear thanks to the growing studies on this field, were led by a lot of intellectual strength and a lot of dialectical and expressive refinement. They not only fed Italian culture, but also managed to influence some of the most important and fortunate currents in the European culture, which were destined to a long lasting success, until the modern age.
