• The paper examines the transformation of the neapolitan nobility between the second half of the 18th century and the first half of the following century. The king Joseph Bonaparte in 1806 suppressed the feudal jurisdiction and the neapolitan landlords were compelled to find an occupation in the civil service or in the provincial and municipal councils. This process continued under the Bourbon kings after 1815 and though the nobility has appointments in the army, court and diplomacy, it lost its identity and the noblemen became civil servants or landowner as well as members of the upper middle class.
