Florence Program Manual
Florence Program Manual Congratulations on your decision to participate in Pepperdine University’s Florence Program! This program manual contains information specific to the Florence Program. You have also been given the International Programs’ Student Handbook with general information, rules and regulations for all International Program participants. We expect you to read all information provided in both handbooks carefully. This program manual provides you with the most updated information and advice available at the time of printing. Changes may occur before your departure or while you are abroad. Your flexibility and willingness to adjust to these changes as they occur will help you in having the best study-abroad experience possible. Our handbooks are revised annually by International Programs in Malibu. Your comments and suggestions for next year’s handbook are welcome. Please direct them to the International Programs Center in Malibu. One of the best ways to prepare for study abroad is to learn as much as possible, prior to departure, about your program’s host country as well as the countries you will visit. Visit the International Programs website, talk with faculty and program alumni, visit the suggested websites included in this program manual and consult books about the area. Your flexibility in adjusting to unanticipated situations and cultural differences will determine, in great part, the kind of experience you will have while abroad. We wish you a successful and rewarding study-abroad experience! 1 (Version Updated: 07.21.15) -

MONTEPULCIANO's PALAZZO COMUNALE, 1440 – C.1465: RETHINKING CASTELLATED CIVIC PALACES in FLORENTINE ARCHITECTURAL and POLITI
MONTEPULCIANO’S PALAZZO COMUNALE, 1440 – c.1465: RETHINKING CASTELLATED CIVIC PALACES IN FLORENTINE ARCHITECTURAL AND POLITICAL CONTEXTS Two Volumes Volume I Koching Chao Ph.D. University of York History of Art September 2019 ABSTRACT This thesis argues for the significance of castellated civic palaces in shaping and consolidating Florence’s territorial hegemony during the fifteenth century. Although fortress-like civic palaces were a predominant architectural type in Tuscan communes from the twelfth century onwards, it is an understudied field. In the literature of Italian Renaissance civic and military architecture, the castellated motifs of civic palaces have either been marginalised as an outdated and anti-classical form opposing Quattrocento all’antica taste, or have been oversimplified as a redundant object lacking defensive functionality. By analysing Michelozzo’s Palazzo Comunale in Montepulciano, a fifteenth-century castellated palace resembling Florence’s thirteenth-century Palazzo dei Priori, this thesis seeks to address the ways in which castellated forms substantially legitimised Florence’s political, military and cultural supremacy. Chapter One examines textual and pictorial representations of Florence’s castellation civic palaces and fortifications in order to capture Florentine perceptions of castellation. This investigation offers a conceptual framework, interpreting the profile of castellated civic palaces as an effective architectural affirmation of the contemporary idea of a powerful city-republic rather than being a symbol of despotism as it has been previously understood. Chapters Two and Three examine Montepulciano’s renovation project for the Palazzo Comunale within local and central administrative, socio-political, and military contexts during the first half of the fifteenth century, highlighting the Florentine features of Montepulciano’s town hall despite the town’s peripheral location within the Florentine dominion. -

January 2019 P&F Newsletter LONG
WELCOME This is the time of year for residents - the halls of galleries and museums are peaceful, making it the ideal moment to linger over attractions that are usually crowded with tourists. Winter is also the season to travel into the hills for skiing and thermal baths, and immersing in the fashion events that take over the city centre. Or if you’d prefer to hide from the cold, then bundle up, light the fire (or a few candles), pour a nice glass of Chianti and snuggle in under a warm blanket. Warmest best wishes for a 2019 filled with joy, laughter, and good health, from SUZANNE, CORSO, BEI, LESLIE, VANNI, ANNA PIA, RAFFAELLA, AND MARISA. PITCHER & FLACCOMIO PICKS FOR JANUARY BEST EVENT FOR JANUARY: LA BEFANA VISITS DURING THE EPIPHANY January 6 On January 6, La Befana arrives in Florence and this is Italy's traditional day of gift giving. In the Christian tradition the name "Befana" is a popular version of the Greek term “Epiphany", which was the festivity following Christmas commemorating the visit of the Magi. According to the legend the three wise men on their journey were stopped by an old woman with a broom who asked them where they were going. They told her that they were following a star that would lead them to a newborn baby, and invited her to come along. But she replied that she was busy sweeping and cleaning and did not go. When she realised her mistake, her regret was so great that she continues to wander about Italy and on the Epiphany (January 6, when the Wise Men finally found the baby Jesus), begins rewarding good children and disappointing those who were bad. -

Le Musiche Di Palazzo Pitti Al Tempo Dei Granduchi Asburgo- Lorena
Stefania Gitto Le musiche di Palazzo Pitti al tempo dei granduchi Asburgo- Lorena. Storia della collezione musicale granducale1 Introduzione Le ricerche musicologiche sulla figura dell’abate Luigi Gatti, compositore mantovano divenuto maestro di cappella a Salisburgo al tempo del noto arci- vescovo Hieronymus di Colloredo, promosse dal Conservatorio di Mantova2 e la conseguente campagna di catalogazione e digitalizzazione delle composizioni del musicista custodite a Firenze, furono l’occasione iniziale per lo studio dell’in- tera, preziosa collezione musicale di Palazzo Pitti. Più noto oggi come fondo Pitti e dal 1862 custodito presso il conservatorio Luigi Cherubini di Firenze, l’archivio musicale degli Asburgo-Lorena fino allo scorso anno figurava solo nel catalogo generale a schede della biblioteca3, seb- bene ricco di importanti composizioni manoscritte e a stampa dei secoli XVIII e XIX. Grazie al sostegno della Galleria dell’Accademia e di Villa I Tatti4, il Conservatorio poté iniziare nel 2009 la catalogazione informatica5 del fondo mu- sicale, oggi completata e in parte già visibile anche sulla base dati nazionale SBN. Il progetto, oltre ad avere un valore biblioteconomico rilevante per la com- plessa casistica di materiale musicale presente e per le diverse possibilità di fru- izione e valorizzazione delle registrazioni catalografiche tramite il web, ha com- portato l’avvio di un’indagine, tuttora in corso, sull’inedita storia bibliografica e musicale della collezione palatina. Attraverso lo studio della stratificazione libraria e la fruizione delle stesse musiche presso la corte granducale si vorrebbe ricreare il contesto storico e cul- turale nel quale queste opere, giunte a Firenze da varie e spesso ancora miste- riose provenienze, si incontrarono e ‘concertarono’, per dare vita alla libreria granducale, in una complessità di relazioni fra musicisti, esecutori, donatori, intermediari, librai, archivisti, possessori e fruitori.
