Beati Paoli is the name of a secretive sect thought to have existed in medieval Sicily and possibly also in Malta. The sect, as described by the author Luigi Natoli in his historic novel I Beati Paoli (written as a series under the pseudonym William Galt in 1909, then re-published as books in 1921 and 1949), resembles an order of knights fighting for the poor and the commoners. Whereas the novel is fictitious, Sicily's history bears some evidence that the Beati Paoli actually existed.

  • Beati Paoli ist der Name einer geheimnisvollen Sekte, die im mittelalterlichen Sizilien existierte. Die Sekte, wie der Autor Luigi Natoli in seinem historischen Roman I Beati Paoli beschreibt, ähnelt einem Ritterorden, der für die Armen und die Bürger kämpft. Der Roman wurde 1909 als Serie unter dem Pseudonym William Galt geschrieben und als Bücher in den Jahren 1921 und 1949 erneut veröffentlicht. Während der Roman fiktiv ist, weist Siziliens Geschichte einige Hinweise darauf auf, dass die Beati Paoli tatsächlich existierte. Im Jahr 1071 wurde der Feudalismus in Sizilien von seinem Eroberer, dem normannischen Lord Roger de Hauteville, eingeführt. Als die Adligen in den folgenden Jahrhunderten begannen, ihre Feudalrechte auszunutzen, hat Inquisition auch in Sizilien Fuß gefasst. Jede Handlung der Bürger, die vom Staat oder von der Kirche als Landesverrat oder Häresie interpretiert werden konnte, wurde mit dem Tod bestraft. Solche Aktionen könnten unbefugte Versammlungen oder die Bildung von Gesellschaften mit anderen Zielen als der Unterstützung des derzeitigen staatlichen / kirchlichen Regimes sein. In diesem Umfeld entstanden mehrere Orden und Sekten – wenn auch geheim. Beati Paoli wurde angeblich gebildet, um sowohl der Kirche als auch dem Staat wider zusetzen, um die Bürger vor Verstößen des Regimes zu verteidigen. Sie trugen schwarze Kapuzenmäntel und betrieben nachts aus ihrer Zuflucht in den Überresten der Katakomben und unterirdischen Kanäle von Palermo. Es ist nicht bekannt, wann Beati Paoli gegründet wurde, aber der Roman von Luigi Natoli setzt im 17. Jahrhundert die Szene in der Stadt Paoli. Der Ursprung des Namens ist auch unbekannt, obwohl einige ihn an den Heiligen Franziskus von Paola oder Beato Paola binden. Beati Paoli hat für viele Sizilianer dieselbe Bedeutung wie Robin Hood für die Nordeuropäer. Heute finden sich Spuren der Beati Paoli im Capo-Viertel von Palermo, wo ein Platz, eine Straße und ein Restaurant ihren Namen tragen. (de)
  • Beati Paoli is the name of a secretive sect thought to have existed in medieval Sicily and possibly also in Malta. The sect, as described by the author Luigi Natoli in his historic novel I Beati Paoli (written as a series under the pseudonym William Galt in 1909, then re-published as books in 1921 and 1949), resembles an order of knights fighting for the poor and the commoners. Whereas the novel is fictitious, Sicily's history bears some evidence that the Beati Paoli actually existed. In 1071 feudalism was introduced in Sicily by its conqueror, the Norman lord Roger II de Hauteville. As the nobles started to exploit their feudal rights in the centuries to come, the Inquisition also got a foothold in Sicily. Any action by the commoners that could be interpreted by the state or the church as acts of treason or heresy was punishable by death. Such actions could be unauthorized assemblies or formation of societies with goals other than supporting the current state/church regime. In this environment, several orders and sects rose to existence – albeit a secret one. The Beati Paoli was allegedly formed to oppose both the church and the state, defending the commoners from infringements posed by the regime. They wore black hooded coats and operated at night from their refuge in the remains of the catacombs and underground channels of Palermo. It is not known when the Beati Paoli was established, but the novel by Luigi Natoli sets the scene in the first two decades of the 18th century, mainly in the town of Palermo. The origin of the name is also unknown, although some tie it to Saint Francis of Paola, or Beato Paola. The Beati Paoli have the same connotation to many Sicilians as Robin Hood has to Northwestern Europeans. Today, traces of the Beati Paoli can be found in the Capo district of Palermo, where a square, a street and a restaurant bear their name. The Beati Paoli have also tradition meanings to the Maltese. A Maltese old saying -"qala`xebba tal-beati pawli", meaning ``he was hit hard the Beati Paoli way``, may refer to this old sect . Some historians suggested that the Beati Paoli were real and that may have had roots also in Malta (circa the 15th till at least to the early 19th century) and that Malta may have been the sect's last stronghold. Today there is even a small restaurant in Valletta city (Malta`s capital) named Beati Paoli and a devote statue of Saint Francis of Paola is in Saint Elmo street corner also in Valletta Malta. There are even rumors that the Beati Paoli are probably still present even today but whether the sect is still active or not remains a mystery . If so makes the `Beati Paoli` one of the most ancient and most illusive sects . (en)
