  • The Plague of 1630 in Modena (Italy) Through the Study of Parish Registers
    Medicina Historica 2019; Vol. 3, N. 3: 139-148 © Mattioli 1885 Original article: history of medicine The plague of 1630 in Modena (Italy) through the study of parish registers Mirko Traversari1, Diletta Biagini1, Giancarlo Cerasoli2, Raffaele Gaeta3, Donata Luiselli1, Giorgio Gruppioni1, Elisabetta Cilli1 1Department of Cultural Heritage, University of Bologna, Ravenna, Italy; 2 Gruppo AUSL Romagna Cultura, Italy; 3 Division of Paleopathology, Department of Translational Research and New Technologies in Medicine and Surgery, University of Pisa, Pisa, Italy Abstract. The purpose of this paper is to study the impact this disease had on the community in Modena during the epidemic in 1630 and highlight the real course of the disease that brought Modena and whole Europe to its knees in the 17th century. The investigation was carried out by transcribing and studying the par- ish certificates of death for the period 1625-1635. This study confirmed that the plague epidemic in Modena began as early as 1629, and then exploded in the most virulent form since the beginning of summer 1630 and reached its peak in August of the same year, when it caused about seven hundred victims. Key words: plague, infectious diseases, paleopathology Introduction today, newspapers and articles discuss about the plague as an active disease among rodents and, occasionally, Infectious diseases have accompanied humans among human beings. Many historians, doctors, epi- since ancient times and have marked their history, demiologists and writers have ventured into the study sometimes in a catastrophic way. In particular, every- of this disease, in telling its story and the impact of one has heard of or read something about the plague.

  • Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti's De Pictura
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Alberti Before Florence: Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti’s De Pictura A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Art History by Peter Francis Weller 2014 © Copyright by Peter Francis Weller 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Alberti Before Florence: Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti’s De Pictura By Peter Francis Weller Doctor of Philosophy in Art History University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Charlene Villaseñor Black, Chair De pictura by Leon Battista Alberti (1404?-1472) is the earliest surviving treatise on visual art written in humanist Latin by an ostensible practitioner of painting. The book represents a definitive moment of cohesion between the two most conspicuous cultural developments of the early Renaissance, namely, humanism and the visual arts. This dissertation reconstructs the intellectual and visual environments in which Alberti moved before he entered Florence in the curia of Pope Eugenius IV in 1434, one year before the recorded date of completion of De pictura. For the two decades prior to his arrival in Florence, from 1414 to 1434, Alberti resided in Padua, Bologna, and Rome. Examination of specific textual and visual material in those cities – sources germane to Alberti’s humanist and visual development, and thus to the ideas put forth in De pictura – has been insubstantial. This dissertation will therefore present an investigation into the sources available to Alberti in Padua, Bologna and Rome, and will argue that this material helped to shape the prescriptions in Alberti’s canonical Renaissance tract. By more fully accounting for his intellectual and artistic progression before his arrival in Florence, this forensic reconstruction aims to fill a gap in our knowledge of Alberti’s formative years and thereby underline impact of his early career upon his development as an art theorist.

  • Ravenna, a Study by Edward Hutton</H1>
    Ravenna, A Study by Edward Hutton Ravenna, A Study by Edward Hutton Produced by Ted Garvin, Leonard Johnson and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team. RAVENNA A STUDY BY EDWARD HUTTON ILLUSTRATED IN COLOUR AND LINE by HARALD SUND 1913 TO MY FRIEND ARTHUR SYMONS IN AFFECTIONATE HOMAGE page 1 / 345 PREFACE My intention in writing this book has been to demonstrate the unique importance of Ravenna in the history of Italy and of Europe, especially during the Dark Age from the time of Alaric's first descent into the Cisalpine plain to the coming of Charlemagne. That importance, as it seems to me, has been wholly or almost wholly misunderstood, and certainly, as I understand it, has never been explained. In this book, which is offered to the public not without a keen sense of its inadequacy, I have tried to show in as clear a manner as was at my command, what Ravenna really was in the political geography of the empire, and to explain the part that position allowed her to play in the great tragedy of the decline and fall of the Roman administration. If I have succeeded in this I am amply repaid for all the labour the book has cost me. The principal sources, both ancient and modern, which I have consulted in the preparation of this volume have been cited, but I must here acknowledge the special debt I owe to the late Dr. Hodgkin, to Professor Diehl, to Dr. Corrado Ricci, and to the many contributors to the various Italian Bollettini which I have ransacked.

  • Reading the Decameron from Boccaccio to Salviati A
    READING THE DECAMERON FROM BOCCACCIO TO SALVIATI A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Daniel Thomas Tonozzi February 2010 © 2010 Daniel Thomas Tonozzi READING THE DECAMERON FROM BOCCACCIO TO SALVIATI Daniel Thomas Tonozzi, Ph.D. Cornell University 2010 My dissertation analyzes the assumptions and anxieties the Decameron, in complete and expurgated forms, reveals about the practice of reading, the category of reader, and the materiality of the text. I also consider stories from the Decameron as a dialogue among the narrators who discuss the responsibilities of readers and writers. My introduction sets up how I engage existing concepts of hermeneutics, reader-response theory, and imitation. In Chapter 1, I discuss the practice of reading in terms of humanist imitation. I privilege an appreciation and examination of method, highlighting two responsibilities that weigh on the Decameron’s readers: to recognize useful textual models and to execute those models in a way that balances their replication with innovation. In Chapter 2, I consider the Decameron’s assumptions about how readers judge useful models and discern opportunities for pleasure. I propose a reader who simultaneously acts as an individual agent and a member of a larger community. I identify two divergent models for communal participation that are marked by gender. In Chapter 3, I analyze the interventions of expurgators Vincenzo Borghini and Lionardo Salviati, illustrating how their editions manipulate the tensions inherent in any censored book between its status as literature and its mandate to represent and support a specific ideology.

    RECALLING THE COUNCIL OF FERRARA AND FLORENCE: TWO FIFTEENTH-CENTURY FLORENTINE UOMINI FAMOSI CYCLES by CARRIE CHISM LIEN TANJA JONES, COMMITTEE CHAIR MINDY NANCARROW NOA TUREL A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Art and Art History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2015 Copyright Carrie Chism Lien 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT In this thesis, I examine the two extant Florentine fresco cycles of famous men, or uomini famosi created in the quattrocento: Andrea del Castagno’s Famous Men and Women (1448-51) [figure 1], created for the private residence of the Carducci family, and Domenico Ghirlandaio’s Apotheosis of St. Zenobius and Famous Men (1482-83) [figure 2] located in the Sala dei Gigli in the Palazzo Vecchio, suggesting that each recalled the Council of Ferrara and Florence (1438- 39), called by Pope Eugenius VI in 1438 in an attempt to unify the Eastern and Western divisions of the Church. While extensive art historical study has been dedicated to each cycle individually, neither installation has been considered in relation to contemporary political events or in relation to the other. Reference to the Council, its temporary success, and the lasting effect that it had in the hearts of Florentines, I suggest, aids in understanding what have been, in the past, identified as the cycles’ “unusual” iconography, such as the inclusion of contemporary Florentine men and a somewhat minor saint placed as a central figure. To support this expanded analysis of the frescoes, I first consider the history of uomini famosi cycles, demonstrating that, indeed, both Florentine cycles contain unprecedented groupings and portrayals, intentional departures from cycles produced outside of Florence.
