Charles Ferdinand, Prince of Capua
Prince Charles of the Two Sicilies, Prince of Capua (Full Italian name: "Carlo Ferdinando,
Principe di Borbone delle
Due Sicilie, Principe di Capua") (10 November 1811 – 22 April 1862 in Turin, Kingdom of Italy) was the second son of Francis I of the Two Sicilies and his second wife Maria Isabella of Spain.
He contracted a morganatic marriage in 1836 and had to live for the rest of his life in exile.
Gaitelgrima of Salerno
Gaitelgrima of Salerno( fl. 1091), was princess consort of Capua by marriage to Jordan I of Capua.
She was regent of Capua in 1091 during the minority of her sons, Richard, Robert, and Jordan.
Landulf II of Capua
Landulf II(" c". 825 – 879) was Bishop and Count of Capua.
He was the youngest of four sons of Landulf I, gastald of Capua.
As a young man, he entered the church.
When his father died, his eldest brother, Lando, succeeded him.
On the death of the bishop of Capua, Paulinus, Lando made Landulf bishop of the city.
Lando died in 861 and his young son, Lando II was deposed only a few months later by Landulf's other elder brother, Pando.
Pando too died soon thereafter( 862 or 863) and a succession crisis broke out.
Pando's son Pandenulf was shoved aside and Landulf, though bishop, took the Capuan throne in 863.
However, the other branches of the family refused to recognize the usurpation and began seizing much of the county for themselves, leaving Landulf II only in control of the town of Capua proper.
Isolated, Landulf II invited Saracen mercenaries to ravage the lands of his familiars, a move which much alarmed his neighbors( including the pope).
In 866, the deposed Pandenulf appealed to Emperor Louis II, then visiting Monte Cassino, to act against his uncle.
The Emperor promptly besieged Capua and divested Landulf II, but instead of restoring Pandenulf, decided to pass the county of Capua over to the marquis Lambert I of Spoleto.
This arrangement did not last long.
In 871, Lambert was involved in a rebellion against Louis II orchestrated by Adelchis of Benevento.
In the aftermath, Louis II deposed Lambert and restored Landulf II as count of Capua.
As a condition, Landulf II swore off deploying Saracens in the county.
Upon the death of Louis( 875), who had strictly enforced peace amongst the Christians of the Mezzogiorno, Landulf II allied himself with the Saracens, but in 877, Pope John VIII convinced him to ally himself to the papacy against the Muslims.
He spent the next years defending the Amalfi Coast with his navy in return for tribute.
Landulf II died in 879, undisputed count of Capua, and a succession crisis broke out again between his nephews Lando II( son of Lando), Pandenulf( son of Pando) and Lando III( son of Landenulf of Teano).
In the chronicle of Erchempert, of whom he was a contemporary, Landulf II of Capua is the chief villain, portrayed as a dabbler in mysticism and black magic, Saracen ally and enemy of Christendom.
Erchempert's portrayal of Landulf II was the inspiration for the character of evil duke and magician Klingsor in Wolfram von Eschenbach's medieval epic" Parzival".
Eschenbach's epic was later translated into the famous nineteenth- century opera" Parsifal" by Richard Wagner.
As American film director George Lucas is frequently said to have looked to" Parsifal" for inspiration in his creation of the" Star Wars" saga, Landulf II of Capua, via this long chain of association, is the closest historical source for the villainous Darth Vader.
Theodred II (Bishop of Elmham)
Theodred II was a medieval Bishop of Elmham.
The date of Theodred's consecration unknown, but the date of his death was sometime between 995 and 997.
Jordan II of Capua
Jordan II( died 19 December 1127) was the third son of Prince Jordan I of Capua and Princess Gaitelgrima, a daughter of Prince Guaimar IV of Salerno.
He was, from at least May 1109, the lord of Nocera, and, after June 1120, Prince of Capua.
The date and place of his birth are unknown, but it must have been later than 1080.
He was married, before 1113, to Gaitelgrima, daughter of Sergius, Prince of Sorrento, a union which allowed him to extend his influence down the Amalfi coast from his castle at Nocera.

Alfonso of Capua
Alfonso, also called Anfuso or Anfusus(" c".
1120 – 10 October 1144), was the Prince of Capua from 1135 and Duke of Naples from 1139.
He was an Italian- born Norman of the noble Hauteville family.
After 1130, when his father Roger became King of Sicily, he was the third in line to the throne; second in line after the death of an older brother in 1138.
He was the first Hauteville prince of Capua after his father conquered the principality from the rival Norman Drengot family.
He was also the first Norman duke of Naples after the duchy fell vacant on the death of the last Greek duke.
He also expanded his family's power northwards, claiming lands also claimed by the Papacy, although he was technically a vassal of the Pope for his principality of Capua.
Charles-Ferdinand Ramuz
Charles- Ferdinand Ramuz( 24 September 1878 – 23 May 1947) was a French- speaking Swiss writer.
María Isabella of Spain
Maria Isabella of Spain (María Isabel de Borbón y Borbón-Parma; 6 July 1789 – 13 September 1848) was an infanta of Spain and Queen consort of the Two Sicilies.
Robert (son of William I of Sicily)
Robert( 1153/4–1159/60) was the second son of King William I of Sicily and his queen, Margaret of Navarre.
He was about four or five years old when he was appointed Prince of Capua in 1157 or 1158.
Prior to his accession, since 1144, his father had been Prince of Capua.
Robert's Latin title," princeps Capuanorum", means literally" Prince of Capuans".
He was the third Robert of Capua, after Robert I and Robert II.
The latter, who had been deposed in 1135, returned in 1155 – 56 in an effort to reclaim his principality.
He managed to control some territory, but was ultimately unsuccessful.
The young Robert's rule in Capua can be traced in documents between September 1158 and May 1159, but he had died by February – March 1160, when his father was once again ruling Capua directly.
Eventually, Robert's younger brother Henry was appointed Prince of Capua in May 1166.
