INFORMATION: He was a Roman writer, architect and engineer, active in the 1st century BC. Author of the oldest research on architecture ―The 10 Books of Architecture‖ or ―De Architectura Libri Decem‖. Mainly known for his writings, Vitruvius was himself an architect.

His two great masterpieces are the Villa Farnese at Caprarola and the Jesuits' Church of the Gesù in Rome. The three architects who spread the Italian Renaissance style throughout Western Europe are Vignola, Serlio and Palladio. The earliest, Regola delli cinque ordini d'architettura "Canon of the five orders of architecture" (first published in 1562, probably in Rome), presented Vignola's practical system for constructing columns in the five classical orders (Tuscan, Doric, Ionic, Corinthian and Composite) utilizing proportions which Vignola derived from his own measurements of classical Roman monuments. The clarity and ease of use of Vignola's treatise caused it to become in succeeding centuries the most published book in architectural history. Vignola's second treatise, the posthumously-published Due regole della prospettiva pratica "Two rules of practical perspective" (Bologna 1583), favours one-point perspective rather than two point methods such as the bifocal construction. Vignola presented— without theoretical obscurities— practical applications which could be understood by a prospective patron. FAMOUS WORK: The five orders, engraving from Vignola's Regola delle cinque ordini d'architettura.

  • Visit the Major Renaissance Gardens & Villas Around
    Visit the major renaissance gardens & villas around Rome including Villas d’Este, Farnese, Lante & Bomarzo See the most famous modern gardens of central Italy at Ninfa & La Landriana Discover antiquity’s extraordinary ‘villa lifestyle' at Emperor Hadrian’s villa at Tivoli Remarkable private visits, some with lunch, not found on other itineraries Based in the quiet and picturesque town of Civita Castellana, just north of Rome Tivoli, Villa d’Este Lazio is the largely agricultural area surrounding Rome. In ancient times it was dotted with villas used by senatorial and imperial owners as a place of retreat. This lifestyle was characterised by Cicero as the contrast between the life of the country, otium, represented by villas in and around Tusculum and later on, Tivoli; and that of the city, negotium, dominated by politics, business and intrigue. Like many aspects of antiquity, this tradition of cultured withdrawal was revived during the renaissance, first in Tuscany and then in the Roman countryside via the influence of two Medici cardinals who were elected to the papacy as Leo X and Clement VII, and their associates. Those who could escape the pressures of city life did so in order to find solace amidst the peace of the country. To achieve this aim, the papal and aristocratic Roman families of the Renaissance and Baroque periods built lavish villas in what we call the Campagna. The villas were usually complemented by fine gardens, embellished with rare plants and statuary, awash with the play of fountains and rills. Indeed, in the eighteenth century some of these ancient and later gardens influenced British traditions as visions of an Arcadian past came to replace the more formal layouts of earlier centuries.

It will be alive to the best writing of a transnational and comparative nature and will cross canonical chronological divides of the Central Middle Ages, the Late Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period. Renaissance History, Art and Culture intends to spark new ideas and encourage debate on the meanings, extent and influence of the Renaissance within the broader European world. It encourages engagement by scholars across disciplines – history, literature, art history, musicology, and possibly the social sciences – and focuses on ideas and collective mentalities as social, political, and cultural movements that shaped a changing world from ca 1250 to 1650.

  • 03-Villa Spada-A Historical Note-Gearoid O'broin.Pdf
    Villa Spada — A Historical Note Gearóid Ó Broin As the Mother House in the period 1888-1895 and the place where the foundress, Mother Mary Ignatius OSF, died on 6 May 1894, the Villa Spada1 has a particular interest for members of the Missionary Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate Conception. The story of the house is largely the story of two families, the Nobilis, who owned the property for about a hundred years and built the Casino, and the Spadas, who owned it for a further 200 years of its history. Although they came from noble families, who produced some scholars (Roberto Nobili S.J. and Virgilio Spada) and four Cardinals, none of the actual owners of the property left a deep mark on their times and none of them produced more than a footnote in the history books. Though not themselves great, they and their country house were often close to great people and great events. For ten days in 1849, Garibaldi and his red-shirts placed the Villa Spada at the centre of Italian history. Today's Villa on the Janiculum hill occupies an area of 7,300 square metres, but the original area was, at 30,366 square metres, more than four times as large. It stretched as far as Porta San Pancrazio-at 82 meters above sea level, the highest point in Rome within the city walls-and included much of what is now the American Academy. The name Janiculum is presumed to derive from the cult of Janus. Numa Pompilius, the second Roman king, built a temple to Janus and was buried on the Janiculum.
