ZANCHIN 1 Abstract: Until its end the Serenissima constantly supported the contagionist hypothesis, playing for all the span of its history the role of pioneer and model for the measures adopted to prevent the diffusion of epidemics. The sanitary preoccupations of the Republic were particularly directed upon people and goods arriving from the territories of the Ottoman Empire from where periodic bouts of plague originated. The examination of the written and iconographic primary sources here considered puts in evidence relevant aspects of the Venetian fight against the plague Key words: Republic of Venice, plague, epidemics, lazaret, quarantine, osella.

  • Santa Fosca in Torcello and the Middle Byzantine Churches in Eastern Greece: Preliminary Comparison and Remarks on Common Features and Differences
    Athens Journal of History January 2016 Santa Fosca in Torcello and the Middle Byzantine Churches in Eastern Greece: Preliminary Comparison and Remarks on Common Features and Differences By Antonella Manzo The main aim of this work is to critically examine Santa Fosca building period through the analysis of the similarities as well as the differences with some churches located in Greece and belonging to the so-called octagonal domed type. In fact, since the second half of the Nineteenth century a historiographical tradition has compared Santa Fosca with these Greek Middle-Byzantine churches, where eight supports, piers or columns, arranged in a regular or irregular octagon, receive the loads from the cupola. The comparison is based on the direct analysis of these buildings: the structural configuration, the constructive materials and techniques as well as the affinities in decoration, occurring both inside and outside, are under investigation. This contribution offers a new perspective, from which it could be possible to study the period of erection of the Venetian church, a topic that is still object of debate among the scientific community. Introduction Torcello is an island belonging to the Northern Venetian Laguna, which lives its golden age during the X-XI century AD: in his Administrando Imperio of 927 Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus defines Torcello as emporion mega, to testify the great importance of its intense trades with the Orient. The church of Santa Fosca is located on the island at the Southern side of the ancient Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta, whose origins date back to the inscription of 639 AD, discovered during the excavations of 1895.

  • Saint Mark's Square As Contested Political Space
    SAINT MARK’S SQUARE AS CONTESTED POLITICAL SPACE: PROTESTING CRUISE TOURISM IN VENICE [ReceiveD 21st October 2020; accepteD February 21st 2021 – DOI: 10.21463/shima.119] AlexanDer Araya López Ca’ Foscari University, Venice < [email protected]> ABSTRACT: Saint Mark’s Square is unquestionably the most famous tourist attraction in Venice, a piazza characterised by its complex history, unique aesthetics anD many allusions to power (given its proximity to the Doge’s Palace anD Saint Mark’s Basilica). This square is the largest open space in the city anD while it is routinely crowDeD with tourists from all over the worlD, political Demonstrations have been prohibiteD since 1997. This article explores Saint Mark’s Square as a contested political space by focusing on the many local struggles against cruise tourism in Venice anD its lagoon. InsteaD of constituting an ‘apolitical’ space, the preferreD uses given to the square by local authorities and tourism stakeholders are manifestly ‘political’, producing a space of leisure and consumption that benefits the economic logic behinD the ‘normal’ functioning of the piazza. Other alternative social anD political uses of the square are not only DiscourageD but banned, which brings into Discussion the Lefebvrian notion of the right to the city: who has access to the centre as a (political) privilegeD space? The article examines protest acts undertaken by the collective No Grandi Navi, particularly the political events that took place after the MSC Opera collision with another tourist vessel anD the Dock in June 2019. KEYWORDS: public sphere, protest, cruise tourism, policing, urban spaces. IntroDuction: Global mass tourism anD Venice as a ‘tourist’ city In June 2020, while the coronavirus panDemic forceD many cities anD tourist Destinations to impose harsh lockDowns, Dozens of cruise ships were stranDeD at Manila Bay in the Philippines (Fonbuena anD McCormick, 2020).

  • Le Isole Minori Elisabetta Vulcano 2009
    CITTA’ DI VENEZIA Assessorato Ambiente - Osservatorio Naturalistico della Laguna Centro Studi Riviera del Brenta In collaborazione con: Coop. Hyla – CAI – Uff. Educazione Ambientale – Istituzione Parco Laguna Corso didattico formativo LA LAGUNA DI VENEZIA: genesi, evoluzione, naturalità e salvaguardia - Anno 2008/2009 - LE ISOLE MINORI: UN PATRIMONIO DELLA STORIA ALLA DERIVA DEL PRESENTE Elisabetta Vulcano (Architetto) La struttura topografica della città nelle sue linee generali è già formata nella prima metà del XIII secolo. La pianta di Venezia disegnata da Paolino da Venezia (1270-1344), e inserita nel suo “Compendium” detto anche “Chronologia magna” (1346), restituisce la forma della città secondo un aspetto cronologico: come doveva presentarsi Venezia nel IX secolo (ma con alcuni particolari riferiti addirittura all'VIII secolo) e come doveva essere nel XII secolo, con aggiunte relative alla sua configurazione coeva all'autore. Dopo la morte di Fra' Paolino la pianta pergamenacea rimase nascosta a tutti per quattrocento anni. Solo nel 1730 Tomaso Temanza scoprì la pergamena e nel 1781 realizzò una incisone su rame nella quale riportò con una calligrafia più chiara il disegno e le scritte, incisione che diede alle stampe.

  • The Future of Venice's Past and the Archaeology of The
    CHAPTER SEVEN THE FUTURE OF VENICE’S PAST AND THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE NORTHEASTERN ADRIATIC EMPORIA DURING THE EARLY MIDDLE AGES Sauro Gelichi1 Were there Italian Emporia in the Early Middle Ages? The debate about the archaeology of early medieval emporia has been, and essentially remains, entirely north-European, due to both its greater visibility in those regions and the intrinsic nature of archaeology in those countries.2 Of course, the development of these investigations has produced records that have been immediately used for a more general discussion of the economy in Europe and the Mediterranean from Late Antiquity to the Carolingian Age, following in the wake of a critical revision of the views of the well-known Belgian historian Pirenne.3 Developed during the first decade of the last century, the Pirenne thesis has been variously discussed and disputed over time.4 However, due to its overall persuasive nature, it continues to be one of the few examples that attempts to explain the developments and mechanisms of the economy in early medieval Europe in general terms. Lying in the background of this theory and linked to Pirenne’s view of Europe as a centre of the Carolingian economy is the ques- tion of towns and their function in the early medieval period. This is a question to which Pirenne had also made a particular contribution in terms of a reassessment of their role and function, at least before 1 Università Ca’ Foscari—Venezia. 2 R.

Anche quest’anno, andremo alla ricerca di angoli nascosti della nostra laguna, ovvero di qualche luogo che magari abbiamo già visitato con il nostro gommone, ma forse troppo in fretta e senza ben conoscerne la storia. Attraverseremo dunque tutta la laguna partendo da Sud (così potremo anche dar libero sfogo ai nostri cavalli, mare permettendo!), iniziando dalla Valle Millecampi, e per la precisione dal Casone Millecampi, caratteristico esempio di architettura lagunare dei secoli scorsi, inserito in un contesto ambientale molto suggestivo. E' l'unico lembo lagunare della Provincia di Padova, poco lontano da Chioggia, al di la dei grandi scavi di canalizzazione e deviazione dei fiumi Brenta e Bacchighione. Tutt'attorno la terraferma strappata alla laguna con le opere di bonifica iniziate già nel 1500 per volere del ricco possidente, nonché famoso mecenate, Alvise Cornaro. Qui ormeggeremo per una visita al luogo, recentemente ristrutturato. Pranzo al sacco, e nel pomeriggio, partenza per l’Isola della Certosa, situata nelle immediate vicinanze di Venezia, dove ormeggeremo e allestiremo le tende per la notte. L’isola, che fino a 10 anni fa giaceva in stato di abbandono, è stata recentemente interessata da un ampio processo di valorizzazione, nel rispetto dell’ambiente e del particolare contesto storico e ambientale della Laguna di Venezia. Infatti, dapprima è stata costruita una darsena, con circa 300 posti barca fino a 40 metri.

  • Auto-Accretion Powered by Microbial Fuel Cells in the Venetian Lagoon
    AUTO-ACCRETION POWERED BY MICROBIAL FUEL CELLS IN THE VENETIAN LAGOON By: Jessica Balesano Jodi Lowell March 10, 2008 AUTO-ACCRETION POWERED BY MICROBIAL FUEL CELLS IN THE VENETIAN LAGOON Jessica Balesano Jodi Lowell Submitted: March 10, 2008 Executive Summary Venice, Italy is a city known for its beautiful architecture, culture, and unique lifestyle. What adds to the romance of the city and sets it apart from all of the others are the canals flowing between the different historical buildings. These canals are the natural dividers for the 110 mud flat islands that make up Venice and are the cornerstone for Venetian life. Not only are the canals the main mode of transportation, but they are also the foundation for all of the buildings along the canals. The walls lining the canals are subjected to stresses inflicted due to their location and contact with the canal waters. These walls are deteriorating, leaving weak building structures and an aesthetically unpleasing appearance. There are many sources of the canal wall damage beyond the mere age of the buildings and materials; one of these sources is moto ondoso, or damage from boat wake. In open waters, the wake from boats can dissipate over a large area. In the canals and narrow waterways in the Venetian lagoon, however, there is less space and opportunity for the kinetic energy of the wave to be reduced before it strikes the canal walls. The impact causes disintegration of the existing wall material and brick mortar. Figure 1 is an example of the damage inflicted by moto ondoso.
