A fines del segundo milenio a.C. fuertes corrientes migratorias debilitaron la cultura septentrional y fragmentaron a la meridional. Surgió una multipli- cidad de culturas regionales (latina, ligur, véneta, villanoviana e ilírica entre otras).

    UNIVERSITY OF PADUA DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING Second Cycle Degree Environmental Engineering Thesis work SEASONAL AND SPATIAL FOOD WEB ANALYSIS IN THE LAGOON OF VENICE USING LINEAR INVERSE MODELLING Supervisor: Luca Palmeri Co-Supervisor: Alberto Barausse Co-Supervisor: Daniele Brigolin Student: VERONICA ZANATTA ACADEMIC YEAR 2013 – 2014 II If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with. Michael Jackson III IV ABSTRACT As a matter of fact anthropogenic pressures on ecosystems are increased in several parts of the world and a preservation and conservation of their natural status are issues of concern. A description of the interactions between the compartments of a trophic network is fundamental in order to obtain a general picture of the state of the ecosystem. The trophic network modelling approach is a useful tool to study the ecosystem state because it collects a large amount of ecological and biological information. This way the food web model describes the relationships among the components of the system. Moreover mass balance models allow to look at the ecosystem through a steady state condition which is a snapshot image of the behaviour of the system in the period under study. For these reasons the first goal of this study is to quantify the flow network of carbon in different food webs models in the Lagoon of Venice using the Linear Inverse Modelling (LIM) approach. LIM ensures that the quantified trophic network satisfies the basic biological constraints and that the experimentally observed composition of the food web is conserved as much as possible.

  • A Taste of Diplomacy: Food Gifts for the Muscovite Embassy in Venice (1582)*
    / T J R E M D S Laura Mesotten European University Institute A TASTE OF DIPLOMACY: FOOD GIFTS FOR THE MUSCOVITE EMBASSY IN VENICE (1582)* Abstract A vital factor governing early modern diplomatic relations was the practice of hospital- ity. To assure that the embassy began amicably, ambassadors had to be received with generosity. The nature and extent of diplomatic hospitality differed according to the host state, but it often included the offer of housing and victuals. This critical edition of a primary source aims to shed new light on the characteristics of diplomatic hospitality by carefully examining a list of expenses drafted by the Venetian office of the Rason Vecchie. This archival document provides a detailed account of all the food that was supplied to host a Muscovite delegation that visited Venice in 1582. In the first place, the article unravels the qualities and dynamics of Venetian food gifts by contextualising and comparing the source with additional Venetian records. Furthermore, it argues that the type of foodstuffs offered, the amount of money spent on them, and the splendour of festive banquets all communicated strong symbolic and political messages. By focusing the analysis on lists of expenses, the relevance of these documents for the study of diplomatic practices is illustrated. Overviews of financial transactions might seem static and dry accounts at first sight, however, when analysed closely, they reveal a great deal about the day-to-day operation of early modern diplomacy. Keywords: Venice, hospitality, gift-giving, food gifts, diplomatic expenditure * This article draws on a chapter of my PhD dissertation entitled ‘Rituals of Diplomacy in the Venetian Republic’, see: Laura Mesotten, ‘Behind the Curtains of Diplomacy: The Household, Material Culture and Networks of French Ambassadors in Venice (1550–1610)’ (unpublished doctoral thesis, European University Institute, 2017), pp.
