This is the first exhibition of Roman antiquities at the Subjects: Social Studies, Art National Gallery. Related Activity: Mathematics, English “The lost-found story of Pompeii, which seemed to have a moral — of confidence destroyed and decadence chastised — appeared ideally devised for the ripe Victorian mind.” But its influence did not stop in 19th-century England. Pompeian influences exist in the Library of Congress, the Senate Appropriations Committee room and around D.C. We provide resources to take a Road Trip (or Metro ride) to some of these places. Although the presence of Vesuvius that destroyed and preserved a way of life is not forgotten, the visitor to the exhibit is taken by the garden of rosemary and laurel, the marble and detailed craftsmanship, the frescos and mosaics.

No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. Schubert: The Nonsense Society Revisited RITA STEBLIN Twenty years have now passed since I discovered materials belonging to the Unsinnsgesellschaft (Nonsense Society).1 This informal club, active in Vienna from April 1817 to December 1818, consisted mainly of young painters and poets with Schubert as one of its central members. In this essay I will review this discovery, my ensuing interpretations, and provide some new observations. In January 1994, at the start of a research project on Schubert ico- nography, I studied some illustrated documents at the Historisches Museum der Stadt Wien (now the Wienmuseum am Karlsplatz), titled “Unsinniaden.”2 The documents comprise forty-four watercolor pictures and thirty-seven pages of text recording two festive events celebrated by the Nonsense Society: the New Year’s Eve party at the end of 1817 and the group’s first birthday party on 18 April 1818.3 The pictures depict various club members, identified by their code names and dressed in fan- ciful costumes, as well as four group scenes for the first event, including Vivat es lebe Blasius Leks (Long live Blasius Leks; Figure 1), and two group scenes for the second event, including Feuergeister-Scene (Fire Spirit Scene; Figure 6 below).4 Because of the use of code names—and the misidentifi- cations written on the pictures by some previous owner of the

Quelques bijoux de corail ou de turquoises soulignent le caractère décidément estival de cette tenue de villégiature. L'engouement des élites pour Capri n'est pas chose nouvelle.

    Sorrento, Capri, the Amalfi Coast and Naples

    Sorrento, Capri, the Amalfi Coast and Naples 24 - 31 March 2019 from £1795.00 A tempting Spring break to Italy, relaxing in the mild climate of the Amalfi coast and the Bay of Naples. We will be based in Sorrento on the Amalfi coast for the first three nights, where we will visit the Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone. These are the classic Amalfi gardens laid out in terraces where umbrella pines and cypresses shade classical geometric beds edged with box and filled with modern flowers. The site of Villa Cimbrone on a cliff top promontory overlooking the sea is beyond compare. We will also take the ferry to the enchanting island of Capri and explore some of its captivating sights. We travel round the Bay of Naples, breaking our journey with visits to the unique archaeological wonders of Pompeii and Herculaneum, to the pulsating port of Naples itself. We travel out to the north of the city to spend a day at the impressive palace and gardens of La Caserta. This huge palace, with equally grand and impressive gardens, was constructed for the Bourbon Kings of Naples and on completion in the 18th century it was the largest royal residence in the world. Finally a day of art and archaeological treasures as we tour the hot-blooded city of Naples, rich with the aroma of Neapolitan cuisine. Itinerary Day 1 We depart by coach from York for Manchester Airport in time for our scheduled flight to Naples (provisional times 08.00/12.00). Upon arrival we will transfer to our hotel in Sorrento, where we will stay for the next three nights.

    Archeoastronomia nelle ville imperiali romane: Villa Jovis a Capri (Napoli) * Marina De Franceschini (Archeologa, [email protected] , sito web: www.villa-adriana.net ) Giuseppe Veneziano (Osservatorio Astronomico di Genova, [email protected] , sito web: www.oagenova.it ) Ricostruzione ottocentesca della Villa Jovis, sull’isola di Capri, eseguita dall’architetto tedesco Carl Weichardt (1846-1906), tratta dall’opera Das Schloß des Tiberius und andere Römerbauten auf Capri , 1900 . * Il presente studio è stato presentato al XII Convegno Nazionale della Società Italiana di Archeoastronomia (S.I.A.) tenuto ad Albano Laziale, il 5-6 ottobre 2012 ed è in corso di stampa negli Atti relativi. Da tempo immemorabile l’isola di Capri è uno dei luoghi più belli del mondo; fra i primi ad apprezzarla vi fu l’imperatore Augusto che, come narra Cassio Dione 1, visitò l’isola nel 29 a.C., durante il viaggio di ritorno a Roma dopo la battaglia di Azio. La bellezza del sito unita ad un prodigio favorevole lo spinse a cedere alla città di Neapolis l’isola Aenaria (l’attuale Ischia) per avere in cambio Capri, che divenne così proprietà imperiale 2. Augusto scelse Capri per la villeggiatura estiva e la chiamò Apragòpolis , cioè “città del dolce far niente”. Il suo successore Tiberio invece la elesse a propria residenza permanente, quando decise di abbandonare Roma; Tacito racconta che vi possedeva ben dodici ville 3. Le enormi dimensioni dell’edificio di cui trattiamo provano che era il più importante dell’intera isola, ragion per cui da secoli è stato identificato con la « villa quae vocatur Jovis » di cui parla Svetonio 4.
