  • 067-San Salvatore in Lauro
    San Salvatore in Lauro San Salvatore in Lauro is a late 17th century parish, regional and titular church of medieval foundation, located in the rione Ponte. The dedication is to the Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior. This is the regional church for expatriates from the Marches, and is now also the Roman shrine of Our Lady of Loreto. [1] History The first church was apparently built in the 12th century, since a bull of Pope Urban III of 1186 describes it as dependent on San Lorenzo in Damaso. It was already dedicated to our Savior by 1192, and was most likely called "in lauro" because of a nearby garden which had a laurel tree growing over its wall. [1] It was rebuilt c. 1450 by Cardinal Latino Orsini, who took it over as the chapel of a convent of Augustinian Canons Regular which he had founded next door. Since he came from Venice, he did not introduce Canons of the Lateran, as might be expected, but those from the Venetian congregation of San Giorgio in Alga. The new convent was dedicated to St George. The church originally had a nave with side aisles, but the new building had a single nave only. [1] The church was burned out in 1591, but the monastery was unaffected. The latter survived until 1668, when Pope Clement IX suppressed the congregation so that the Republic of Venice could convert its resources into cash for its war against the Ottoman Turks. [1] The church was destroyed in the fire of 1591 and rebuilt starting in 1594 from the foundations after the design of Ottaviano Mascherini.

  • The Cauldron of St. Venera and the Comb of St. Blaise. Cult and Iconography in the Confraternities of Albanians and Schiavoni in Fifteenth–Century Ascoli Piceno
    The Cauldron of St. Venera and the Comb of St. Blaise. Cult and Iconography in the Confraternities of Albanians and Schiavoni in Fifteenth–Century Ascoli Piceno Giuseppe Capriotti* Summary: This article analyzes the relocation of specific cults of saints from the Illyrian coast on the eastern shores of the Adriatic Sea to the Marche region of Italy in line with the migration of communities of Albanians and Schiavoni who gathered into con- fraternities in their new homeland. It investigates the reasons be- hind the frequency with which these confraternities were named after St. Venera (for Albanians) and St. Blaise (for Schiavoni), both highly venerated by the Illyrian community: the first as pro- tection against the Turks, the second in the hope of a good har- vest. In the Marche, however, these cults experienced some specific changes, often influencing artistic production: St. Venera main- tained her anti-Turkish function (in memory of the Albanians’ escape), but her iconography added a nun’s habit and a cauldron; St. Blaise lost his agrarian function but, thanks to his attribute (the carder’s comb), his patronage over the weaving and the dye- ing trades practiced by the Schiavoni was strengthened. Introduction This paper will analyze the relocation of specific cults of saints from the Balkan coast to the Marche region of Italy brought about by the migration of communities of Albanians and Schiavoni who then grouped in confra- ternities in their new homeland.1 This objective will be pursued through the analysis of a “micro” case, that is, the realization of two fifteenth century * This work has been fully supported by Croatian Science Foundation under the project num- ber 2305 — Visualizing Nationhood: the Schiavoni / Illyrian Confraternities and Colleges in Italy and the Artistic Exchange with South East Europe (fifteenth–eighteenth century).

  • From Sequence to Scenario. the Historiography and Theory of Visual Narration
    From Sequence to Scenario. The Historiography and Theory of Visual Narration Gyöngyvér Horváth Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of World Art Studies and Museology 2010 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. Abstract When visual narratives first became the focus of study in art history in the late nineteenth century, they were believed to be such a strong phenomenon that they effected the formation of styles. Today, visual narratives are regarded as significant forms of knowledge in their own right, appearing both within and beyond the artistic context. Between these two ideas there is a century-long story of historiography, an almost unknown tradition of academic writing. One of the major aims behind the research presented in this thesis is to trace this tradition: to show the main trends, ideas, persons and methods that formed this particular discourse. In the first part of the thesis, two fundamentally different traditions are identified: one where narratives were regarded as illustrations and one which treated them as elements of a visual language. Special attention has been devoted to the ideas of two scholars, G. E. Lessing and Franz Wickhoff. This is because Lessing’s ideas had particularly strong and lasting effects, and Wickhoff’s ideas were visionary and exemplary.

  • Roman Martyrology by Month
    www.boston-catholic-journal.com Roman Martyrology by Month 1916 Edition January February March April May June July August September October November December The following is the complete text of the Roman Martyrology circa 1900 A.D. Many more Saints and Martyrs have since been entered into this calendar commemorating the heroic faith, the holy deeds, the exemplary lives, and in many cases the glorious deaths of these Milites Christi, or Soldiers of Christ, who gave 1 every fiber of their being to God for His glory, for the sanctification of His Holy Catholic Church, for the conversion of sinners both at home and in partibus infidelium 1, for the salvation of souls, and for the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, even as He had last commanded His holy Apostles: “Euntes ergo docete omnes gentes: baptizantes eos in nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Docentes eos servare omnia quæcumque mandavi vobis.” “Going therefore, teach all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.” (St. Matthew 28.19-20) While the Martyrology presented is complete, it nevertheless does not present us with great detail concerning the lives of those whose names are forever indited within it, still less the complete circumstances surrounding and leading up to their martyrdom. For greater detail of their lives, the sources now available on the Internet are extensive and we encourage you to explore them.2 As it stands, the Martyrology is eminently suited to a brief daily reflection that will inspire us to greater fervor, even to imitate these conspicuously holy men and women in whatever measure our own state in life affords us through the grace and providence of Almighty God.

Four Altar Panels by Bernhard Strigel Some Historical and Philological Perspectives1 Hans A. Pohlsander University at Albany State University of New York n 1507 the German painter Bernhard Strigel (Memmingen 1460-1527) created an altar of the Holy Cross of which four side 1panels have survived, while the presumably carved center has been lost. These four panels were formerly housed in Kynzvart (Konigswart) Castle near Marianske Lazne (Marienbad) in northwest Bohemia but were transferred to the National Gallery in Prague in 1972. The altar apparently was commissioned by the emperor Maxi­ milian I and presented by him as a gift to Pope Julius II. Maximilian at this time was hoping to travel to Rome and to be crowned Holy Roman Emperor by the pope, as his father Frederick III had been in 1452.
