Author: Goudriaan, Elisa Johanna Title: The cultural importance of Florentine patricians. Cultural exchange, brokerage networks, and social representation in early modern Florence and Rome (1600-1660) Issue Date: 2015-04-30 Medici princes, patricians, and cultural academies 173 4 The shared cultural world of the Medici princes and the Florentine patricians: musical performances, European networks, and cultural academies Introduction In the first part of this chapter we see how the cultural worlds of the Medici princes and the patricians related to each other, as the latter functioned as tu- tors and chamberlains for the former and in these roles supervised the Medici’s cultural projects and academies (as vice-patrons). This is illustrated especially by the rich correspondence found in the Niccolini-archive between Filippo Nic- colini, vice-patron of the Sorgenti-academy protected by Prince Giovan Carlo de’ Medici, and the Roman musicians Marco Marazzoli and Giuseppe Vannucci. This correspondence demonstrates that the close contact Florentine patricians had with important artists and musicians led to many cultural innovations. In addition to this, attention is given to the relation between Don Giovanni de’ Medici and the members of the Alterati-academy, and to the many patricians who played a role in Leopoldo de’ Medici’s network of cultural agents. Together the Medici princes and the patricians supported a large cultural world with many connections to other cities. 174 Chapter Four In the second part, we see how the Medici princes were actively involved in the cultural academies they patronized.

La Il progetto del "Ponte delle Milizie" di Augusto Antonelli prima idea per un ponte in questa zona risale al Piano Regolatore del 1920. del 1909. In considerazione del periodo bellico non vi furono svi­ luppi immediati. Nel 1920 viene ripresa l'idea e l'Amministrazione Comunale bandisce un concorso che vede la partecipazione di 34 concorrenti e che viene vinto dall'architetto Augusto Antonelli, funzionario dell'Ufficio Tecnico Comunale. Il ponte si sarebbe dovuto chiamare, in relazione alla destina­ zione d'uso della vicina area di Prati, il Ponte delle Milizie3. Il pro­ getto dell 'Antonelli si caratterizza per una linea tradizionale, con ~ tre campate a tutto sesto la cui linea d'imposta si trova ad un metro dal livello di magra; la purezza di linee ha un riscontro nell'equili­ brato impiego dei materiali. Unica concessione alla decorazione sono due gruppi di quattro colonne miliari poste sull'arcata centra­ le. Queste, in omaggio all'intitolazione 'militare' del ponte, avreb­ bero dovuto recare dei medaglioni con l'effigie dei quattro più grandi condottieri dell'antichità e di quattro condottieri moderni.

  • Conference Abstracts
    Society for Seventeenth-Century Music 2008 Abstracts (in program order) “Une espèce d’éloquence dans la musique”: Embracing a Dis-Figured Rhetoric in France Jonathan Gibson Around 1680, the rhetorician and theologian François Fénelon wrote of Greek and Latin rhetoric, “it is true that, when one has undergone thorough study, one can derive great benefits from it... But in the end, one may dispense with it.” The nonchalance with which Fénelon dismissed revered classical texts exemplifies the growing disenchantment among rhetoricians with figures, tropes, the dispositio, and other aging rhetorical precepts. Seventeenth-century rhetoricians—among them Fénelon, Bernard Lamy, René Bary, and René Rapin —enacted a radical reinvention of French rhetoric, splintering the discipline into three often conflicting strands: the first continued to reference French versions of classical rhetorical figures; the second melded with these ancient precepts a Cartesian taxonomy of the Passions; and the third sought to abandon artificial precepts altogether in the quest for transparent, or “Natural,” representation. Even while adopting opposing methods, representatives of all three approaches were unanimous in regarding rhetoric and music as “sister” disciplines. Furthermore, French musicians and rhetoricians alike rejected the prevailing idea that the relationship between these disciplines was hierarchical, with rhetoric the dominant sibling. This shift helps to explain why the notion that music “imitated” the structures and conventions of rhetoric, while popular in other regions, is to be found in no French source after ca. 1640. Yet, many recent studies continue to perpetuate such hierarchies, mapping onto musical works rhetorical concepts unknown or consciously avoided in France.
